Risk Management Briefs

Egar Technology has released a real-time equity options trading and risk management product for market makers. The solution aims to address the changing needs of market makers moving towards an electronic trading environment, such as a more sophisticated risk and reporting system. Based on Egar's Equity Trading System platform, this newly released version for market makers also includes a full theoretical value engine, a volatility manager and a correlation-based analyzer for delta and Vega hedging. The ETS platform is offered on either a licensing basis for the system to be implemented in-house or on a subscription basis, which enables users to reduce the costs associated with purchasing, owning and operating such a system.
