This leading UK insurer, which wishes to remain anonymous, develops and offers tailored investment solutions to its clients. The firm needed an extremely sophisticated and accurate solution for its Interest Rate and Equity products to measure and forecast counterparty risks and liquidity. The firm also entails a scalable and flexible system to reinforce its role as a leading asset management in the industry. After several tests and a comprehensive assessment of the solutions on hand by different providers, the firm fixed its attention on Pricing Partners’ online independent valuation solution, Price-it® Online for its outstanding performance.
