All budget, position, and counterparty data is entered into the Know-Risk™ tracking system. Prices for marking positions to market feed in directly through Mark-It View™.
The Mark-to-Market report compares all initiated positions to current market prices to determine profit and loss for a given portfolio.
The Variance-to-Budget Volume report captures both hedged and unhedged volumes to calculate the portfolio’s current value and compares it to a previously set budget number.
The Variance-to-Budget Value report compares current position value to budget target by month.
The Margin Requirements report provides an estimate of open trade equity, total equity, initial margin requirement, and margin deficit/surplus.
The Risk Assessment report demonstrates maximum cost exposure at various points in time within a designated confidence interval.
