Calypso Announces New Risk Aggregation Module

San Francisco, 15 February 2005 – Calypso Technology, Inc. a leading provider of cross-asset front to back trading and trade processing systems, today announced the availability of the Calypso Risk Aggregator software module, which provides a consolidated view of risk exposure from multiple business areas.

Calypso Risk Aggregator provides a single view of exposure to risk, such as credit risk, interest rate risk and FX risk, from trading in all systems. It also takes input from in-house systems and third-party systems across multiple trading desks. Users can define various strategies for aggregating risk based on any attribute ( for example, cumulative aggregation based on credit ratings ) and can select from multiple views of data. Risk data can be manipulated into user defined reports for viewing risk measures as needed by end users.

Risk Aggregator is also fully integrated with Calypso’s real-time scenario analysis engine to enable complex stress testing. Together with Calypso’s existing front to back solution, Calypso Risk Aggregator will serve as part of a comprehensive trading and risk system with broad instrument coverage from all asset classes.

Charles Marston, Chairman and CEO of Calypso Technology, Inc., commented: “The launch of Calypso Risk Aggregator strengthens our risk offering and provides a software solution that can be extended beyond existing users at Calypso’s clients. By facilitating a consolidated view of risk, we can provide an environment in which users can accurately manage their risk across multiple business areas.”
