New version of Reval’s (v13.1) treasury and risk management integrated SAS solution released at AFP
by Kylene Casanova
The new single-version, multi-tenant SaaS TRM provides multinationals with new functionality and workflow that deliver both control and flexibility to satisfy central and regional treasury needs.
Reval has also strengthened its financial risk management and hedge accounting capabilities. In the wake of new derivative regulations, Reval 13.1 will help companies control FX transaction volumes and costs with a simplified, straight-through process for FX hedge requests from subsidiaries trading through their central treasuries. They can consolidate multiple FX hedge requests into netted positions and gain more visibility into their underlying exposures. Reval also helps companies meet post-crisis demand for pay-as-you-go (PAYG) inflation swaps, create custom shocks files for Cashflow at Risk analysis, and employ a new method of hedge accounting for the basis adjustment of fair value hedges.
Atlas Risk Advisory added to Reval STP Community
Atlas Risk Advisory is now part of its STP Community of software and service providers. The joint offering will enhance the user experience for companies wanting an accurate approach to FX Exposure Management in an end-to-end TRM workflow. Reval and Atlas clients will be able to identify, extract and aggregate only the relevant data from their ERP systems and generate accurate forecasted FX exposures. Within a powerful straight-through processing workflow, companies will then be able to make informed hedging decisions, execute and settle their trades. Post-trade, they will be able to perform advanced analytics to analyze their hedge results, quantify any variances and comply with hedge accounting requirements - all through one SaaS TRM platform.
“Identifying and extracting data is just the beginning,” explains Scott Bilter, Atlas Partner. “What companies need is an end-to-end workflow that also incorporates advanced analytics to help net and manipulate their FX exposure data. Our partnership with Reval brings the most innovative workflow for FX Exposure management to treasurers in the market.”
Reval and Atlas will begin integration on Reval’s new version 13.1 SaaS TRM platform, released today.
Reval is putting together tightly integrated combinations of their central Treasury and Risk Management system with specialist supplier’s systems and services like Atlas Risk Advisory, rather than building their own solutions to all the different requirements of a corporate treasury department. It will be interesting to watch how other TMS suppliers, and the corporate treasurers respond. This will define how TMS’s develop over the next decade.
