About us
Razor Risk Technologies was created in response to the complex issues surrounding risk management. The company recognized that to proactively measure and manage risk, it was necessary to determine the total exposure of a financial institution across all of its global activities.
Since then, the company's software has helped transform the way Banks, Hedge Funds, Brokers, Central Clearing Counterparties and Stock Exchanges in many countries, measure their risk and manage their capital.
Our award-winning Razor risk framework for valuation, measurement and management accounts for all events and scenarios between the present and some future time horizon. Since the framework explicitly incorporates the passage of time, it allows for portfolios that change over time and under differing scenarios. Thus, a more realistic assessment of risk is possible. Since Razor is a framework and not a risk measure, practitioners can easily incorporate new sources of risk and accommodate innovations in supervision and risk management best practice. Neither practitioners nor regulators are 'locked' into formulaic approaches to risk.
