Monday, July 13th, 2009, New York, NY

RiskVal Financial Solutions, the leading provider of fixed income trading and risk management systems, has been named in the Waters Rankings 2009 as the “Best Credit Risk Solution,” along with a second place win for “Best Market Risk.”

The Risk Waters awards are widely known as the industry leading financial technology awards.  League standings are determined directly by the votes of trading desk clients seeking alpha.  RiskVal was chosen by hundreds of voters out of a field of over twenty contenders per category.  

“RiskVal is honored by the outpouring of support we received from the very top tier of the fixed income and credit trading community, “stated Jordan Hu, CEO of RiskVal.  “The Risk Waters awards, following our Finextra Innovation award earlier this year, are very gratifying and further validate our efforts.”

RiskVal’s solutions and sophisticated analytics are continually stress tested by the industry.   RiskVal offers the very latest features, including real time market data integration, flexible portfolio viewing, and state of the art risk valuations, fully integrated as desired with mid and back office services.

Phil Albinus, Editor of Waters, stated “RiskVal’s risk management solution moves beyond traditional risk assessment and monitoring tools to provide in depth, pre-trade and during trade multi-facetted risk analysis.”

RiskVal’s products, RVFI, for Fixed Income trading, and RVCredit, the RiskVal Structured Credit trading platform, are both fully integrated SaaS solutions.   This modern ASP architecture provides enormous economies of scale in development, deployment and support.  

“RiskVal strives to fully satisfy the fixed income analytical needs of the most demanding prop, arb, and broker / dealer traders in the world,” Mr. Hu continued.  “Our approach is to stay at the cutting edge of the fixed income markets and to continually anticipate and provide new features for our clients. “

RiskVal Financial Solutions, LLC, was founded in 2001, and is based in New York City, with clients in North America, Europe and Asia.  RiskVal also provides professional services and consulting, including profit and loss as well as third party valuation for complex portfolios.
