Deployable either in-house or as part of a hosted solution, Adaptiv covers a range of market risk requirements that run from initial trade capture and storage to advanced “what-if” scenario modeling and analytics tools—and is used by prudential institutions such as the National Bank of Canada, accounting giants like KPMG, and corporates like Bayer AG, in addition to traditional sell-side firms. Where applicable or required, those market risk calculations can additionally be combined using the vendor’s credit risk valuation studio, collateral manager, and Riskbox’s adjustable end-of-day and intra-day tools for a comprehensive and updated view of the risk management consequences incumbent of both sides of a trade.

Adaptiv’s recent success in a very saturated category may well have to do with SunGard’s aforementioned ability to reach such an incredible variety of users. However, the elegance of its unified market and credit risk workflow in a single stack also indicates an eye toward the future—where risk management continues to creep its way toward the front office, and where regulators continue to pile on newly obligatory risk calculations. As its name implies, and readers agree, Adaptiv seems well-designed for whatever is coming next.
