Operational Impact
The new solution provided by IBM has given BBVA real-time insight into limit breaches, allowing the bank to identify potential problems while a deal is on the table and solve them before the trade hits the books. It also ensures that there is no risk of a trade seeming to be within the limits when the deal is made, and then appearing as a breach in the end-of-day analysis. The solution also ensures that the trading data that is input into both models is consistent, eliminating the possibility of a trade getting temporarily “lost” between the front office and the risk team. The automated reporting platform introduced alongside the solution helps the risk team make better strategic decisions about where to focus its resources and which projects to prioritize. | |
