Pricing and Risk Model Consulting

We implement and validate valuation and risk models, review and document models, independently value structured products. With our in-house software MFVal we model the FX Volatility Surface or Yield Curve based on standard market quotes. Our clients use our library for both model validation and in a live trading environment.

Our clients are banks, asset managers and software companies.
