CRISIL GR&A and Greenwich Associates’ Discussion Forum on Trading and Risk Infrastructure

 

While 2020 is behind us, it has certainly left us with a new world to get adjusted with. The year brought with it some of the biggest structural changes in the way financial institutions function, especially trading and risk functions. While each financial institution is strengthening their technology practices, there is a need for developing a deeper understanding of existing trading and risk technology approaches in conjunction with economic realities of 2021.

We will take a closer look at the trends and priorities for trading and risk functions along with providing insights into the future state of bank trading and risk architectures.

 

While technology dynamics are constantly changing, it is extremely important to appraise the appetite of banks to make changes to the existing trading and risk technology infrastructure and their willingness (or rather capacity) to change through the allocation/re-allocation of scarce resources, owing to the ongoing pandemic.
