This detailed report outlines many of the challenges facing banks as they adapt their IT infrastructure to comply with FRTB. Chartis explores current FRTB technology trends, such as integration between front office and risk, and the rise of cloud offerings. In the analysis, software solution providers are evaluated on risk aggregation, risk factor data model, data architecture and data integration capabilities.

Chartis advises banks to move towards flexible, scalable and integrated platforms, while calling on technology vendors to delineate their solution features clearly.

Providing scalability and expert data handling, MX.3 for FRTB is Murex’s end-to-end solution that allows banks to meet the approaching compliance deadlines and anticipate business impacts. A cross-asset solution addressing the Standard Approach and Internal Model Approach, it covers the full FRTB calculation chain and is flexible to adapt to a client’s existing IT infrastructure.
