The vision of an integrated suite of financial analysis products was developed by Dr. Jürg B. Winter and Dr. Willi Brammertz in the 80's, when integrated financial analysis in financial institutions was still in its infancy. The first step in the realization of the vision took place at WINTER PARTNERS AG in Zurich - a banking software development and consulting firm founded in 1970 by Dr. Winter - where a risk and profitability management department was created at the end of the 80's.

The concepts and solutions, which were developed, were based on the one hand on the doctoral thesis of Dr. Brammertz concerning integrated risk management on the other hand on the experience gained from the implementation of the ProfitMaster™ software from Logica Inc. (known in the USA under the name BankMaster™) at over 20 banks in Europe.

To take into account the still very early stage of the integrated financial analysis market, but also its potential, Dr. Winter and Dr. Brammertz founded IRIS integrated risk management ag in Zurich in 1992, with the clear objective of making IRIS AG and its concepts, products and services a leader in the field of integrated financial analysis.

Because ProfitMaster™ increasingly lagged behind the market development (for example in the area of off-balance sheet products, multi-currency analysis, option pricing, etc.) IRIS AG decided in 1993/94 to launch the development of an own integrated financial risk and profitability analysis infrastructure under the name of riskpro™ (for Risk and Profitability).

The key element for the materialization of the vision was a new financial alphabet resulting in the proprietary IRIS contract data model. This open model consisting of a set of elementary "Basic Contract Types" and a number of "Combined Contract Types" (i.a. for derivatives and options) defines the facts and rules to calculate value and revenue for any contract, any time, any market scenario and any accepted valuation method.

To reduce the time to market, ensure the use of the latest technology and a high level of documentation and testing, IRIS outsourced until end of 2002 most of the technical development of riskpro™ to Linkvest S.A. in Renens/Lausanne, in the framework of a long-term strategic agreement. By the end of 2002 these development activities were transferred to the IRIS sister company riskpro™

technologies ag also in Renens/Lausanne.
IRIS integrated risk management ag and riskpro™ technologies ag are owned by Infinas Holding AG, a private Swiss holding company owned by the founders and a number of key contributors.

Inventrix Sdn Bhd is the exclusive partner of IRIS integrated risk management ag in Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia. Inventrix in collaboration with IRIS is responsible for pre sales and post sales activities in these 3 countries. Inventrix is in the midst of building an implementation team for the solutions of riskpro as part of an effort which will only require IRIS to provide the software and other services will be carried out by Inventrix Sdn Bhd.

Value and exposure analysis for all types of accepted valuation methods (fair value, nominal, NPV, observed value, AIBD, various discounting methods), duration, key rate duration, sensitivity measures, various types of gap analysis, price and volatility shift and VaR (parametric, historic, Monte Carlo)

Current and potential future exposure both on a “what if” basis or using Monte Carlo techniques, Credit Loss, Credit VaR, including full Basel ll functionality. The expected loss module simulates dynamically, the effects of rating evolution, defaults and recovery.

Liquidity analysis according to user defined scenarios and strategies in a consistent way for market and credit risk, based on individual contract level.

Analysis based on an “intelligent” historisation allowing the daily storage of all results at the single contract level in the riskpro™ global analysis database (GADB) for limits, capital allocation and performance analysis. Includes also fund transfer pricing functionality supporting nominal and NPV view.

Market scenarios, business strategies and behaviour parameters based analysis with a broad functions library. For strategic enterprise management analysis data about costs, operation loss, etc. are imported from other systems such as SAP, Oracle, ORTOS, etc.

Market risk reporting (BIS98) and credit risk reporting (Basel I and Basel II for standard, foundation and all IRB approaches). The underlying calculations are parameter driven – allowing the user to implement the “national finish” on their own (if wished so)

Covers IFRS/IAS 39 requirements through a consistent fair value valuation and the generation of corresponding entries for the general ledger.

Beyond the basic indicator approach as defined by Basel II. IRIS offers on a non exclusive basis the ORTOS operational risk management solution developed by Dresdner Bank and Capco.

“Make everything as simple as possible… but not simpler than that” originally proclaimed by Albert Einstein, has been embraced as a founding principle of the IRIS approach in the development of riskpro™. To produce the simplest but most accurate model is the goal of each development. This is the only way to cope with the complexity.

At the core of the riskpro™ analysis infrastructure is a universal banking data model with a contract centric approach. This model allows to represent in a consistent and homogeneous way all accepted financial contracts (or products) from saving accounts to exotic options.

This allows the calculation of value and income under any selected market scenario and strategy.All calculations are based on the same contract data and algorithms. The results are reported in Excel, on the riskpro™ Global Analysis Database (GADB), or on any other analytical data warehouse.

The universality of the riskpro™ contract data model supports efficient interfacing from all type of bespoke and standard banking systems, such as Midas, Globus, Summit, Kondor+, and allows to map just about 100% of all accepted financial contracts.

riskpro™ is a fully integrated solution for all types of financial analysis, in the area of risk profitability as well as prudential reporting. There is only one version of riskpro™ because of its integrated design to facilitate the maintenance and further development.

That means that every user has the same product installed, independently from their specific analytical needs. The customisation takes place by the customer controlled modelling.Why does a user requiring for example only gap analysis need such an extensive product installed? The reason is simple; gap analysis can have almost the same degree of complexity as a state-of-the-art VaR calculation.

To accurately reflect the impact of an option within a gap analysis requires up to 90% of the same algorithms that are used in VaR. For example, the option Delta has to be known in both cases. In the same way, identical contract data is used for all types of analysis.

The complexity of riskpro™ is more directly related to the complexity of the financial instruments than on the (apparent) complexity of the analysis. Each analysis requires the same basic algorithms and data.The assumption that simple analyses require less data and less accurate algorithms is a fallacy. Less data and simpler algorithms simply lead to worse results, whether it is gap, VaR, or another analysis.

Thus, an extensive product is necessary for correct analysis. In this context, three objections, often mentioned regarding extensive products, need to be rebutted.

If all prerequisites are fulfilled, the installation of riskpro™ takes one hour. Installations typically take no longer than half a day and the maintenance is minimal for IT purpose. Maintenance is easy because of the clarity at the underlaying structures and the adopted object oriented development approach.“An extensive product is must be a complex product.”

It is true that complex products require more extensive analysis and, consequently, account for a higher degree of complexity. However, at the same time it is true that the analysis becomes easier if none of the complex possibilities are applied.

“An extensive product is expensive.”

Each riskpro™ user pays only for what he needs, even though each user receives that same product. Every user can choose the wanted analytical and produt/instrument coverage, as shown in the license editor below. A so called “Big Number” is compiled based on the selected modules, which controls the use of riskpro™.

This assures the availability of every necessary component for each analysis and, at the same time, the use of only the selected analyses and product/instrument types. This technique also simplifies an enhancement of modules. A new installation is not needed, not even an update of the software. The user simply receives a new “Big Number” and the new functionality is available.
