in'Basel III
Overview
Established to make global banking more resilient to financial and economic stress, Basel III or the Third Basel Accord is set to dramatically impact the banking landscape. Aimed at tackling risks that were not clearly understood or even entirely disregarded, Basel III is the Basel Committee of Banking Supervision’s (BCBS) response to the financial crisis of 2008. The revised Basel rules require banks to enhance their counterparty credit risk management and increase the quality, quantity and transparency of the capital base.
valoores’s Basel III solution enables banks to adopt a coordinated approach to manage risk and enhance risk-adjusted benefits. Banks can easily capture interactions between market, credit, liquidity, and operational risk; assess and analyze their risks; and develop a risk framework for efficient day-to-day risk management. The solution helps align data from a bank’s trading systems with its risk management systems, providing traders in the front office real-time access to rigorous analytics. This helps banks bring risk management to an operational level and effectively optimize the required capital reserve. Supporting risk assessment and computations based on configurable methodologies and algorithms, the solution helps banks prioritize their response strategies for optimal risk/reward outcomes.
