Despite these advances, it remains tough for organizations to find the kind of comprehensive risk management solution they need.
“In today’s market, it’s really difficult to find a vendor offering a truly integrated solution with a common function and common data dictionary that can be shared across all aspects of risk management,” said Dr. Clement Ooi, Executive Vice President and Managing Director of Asia Pacific Operations for Kamakura Corporation. “Kamakura’s standout risk software works for banking, trading book, and fee-based services, and it also calculates cash flow at the account level. In the right hands, market data and macro data can both be used to perform liquidity analysis more efficiently,” he added.

Kamakura’s all-in-one software works for banking, trading book, and fee-based services. Unlike competitors, it also calculates cash flow at the account level, making it invaluable to financial managers.
Most software vendors lack a comprehensive data dictionary and full product coverage,” states Dr. Ooi. Walking the tightrope of regulations, banks struggle with a fragmented data architecture, wasting time and money. Kamakura solves the problem by providing a single platform for comprehensive ERM that includes the bank’s preferred databases, an ETL data integration system, and easy-to-use reporting tools.
