Key
Features
1
Extendable Structuring Template
The SPC provides templates of structuring ingredients needed for the designing of various complex structured products. These templates have been developed based on the analyses of product tendencies over the course of 20 years. Thus, they have been optimized to simplify and speed up user processes even for new product types.
4
Ad Hoc Scenario Simulation
Users are able to execute Ad Hoc simulations for price and risk under the market and parameter scenarios. The simulation can be run simultaneously on the change or reset of scenarios for underlying prices, discount factors, volatilities, and other most parameters. The SPC supports comparison simulations between pricing models, applied market data and parameter sets. Thus, the user is able to easily analyze and compare the results of the application of different models and sets.
2
User-based Product Management
The SPC provides both of standard and user-defined product management hierarchies. The standard is designed for users to easily structure new types of products with predefined structuring ingredient templates. The standard product management hierarchy can be managed in the "Instrument" tab. The user-defined hierarchy can be reorganized by users according to their product management standards and create templates with their desired structuring ingredients. The user-defined product hierarchy can be managed in the "Product" tab.
5
3rd Party Engine Plug-In
The SPC’s engine plug-in function supports the client or third party pricing engines. This easy-to-use plug-in function only requires matching the I/O message format defined by the SPC. The plug-in API (Application Program Interface) runs on various servers such as Linux, Unix and Windows, and is compatible with programming languages including C, C++, C# and Java. Engines that are plugged in are able to take advantage of all the SPC offers such as grid calculation, reports generation and engine call API.
3
Broad Coverage of Pre-trade Analysis
The SPC provides pre-trade ad hoc analyses such price/risk analysis, cash flow analysis, and pay-off graph analysis. Price analysis includes fair value, embedded option price, funding cost, and internal rate of return. Risk analysis includes total and time bucket Greeks and VaR (Value At Risk). Cash flow analysis allows the user to simulate the expected cash flow under changes in market conditions and structures. The pay-off graph is automatically generated for all the changes in structures (excluding interest rate and credit products).
