- ALM procedures./strong>
- End-to-end ALM models and specific client behaviour models.
- Technology for improving ALM information management.
- Proprietary ALM solution (QALM).
All of which in a manner that is responsive to the most stringent regulatory requirements, emerging management needs in uncharted economic and financial territory and increasingly demanding supervisory expectations.
In the procedural area, we advise on organisational matters, committees, policies, action strategies and control procedures, on the definition of indicators, valuation methodologies, limits, internal information and on the information that has to be generated for regulatory and oversight compliance purposes.
QALM
Thanks to our deep knowledge of how to enhance ALM information management procedures, models and technology, we realised we needed to develop a proprietary ALM solution to round out our ALM consultancy offering. Together with Quantitative Risk Research, Afi developed its own ALM management tool - QALM - which is capable of generating projections under multiple scenarios in a more effective and efficient manner. One of its most compelling attributes is the ability to execute all calculations at a more granular level (contract, transaction) with optimal performance and faster execution times. Indeed, the performance it offers cannot be matched by any other application in the market.
Noteworthy characteristics:
- It facilitates highly flexible data management, with scope for adaptation for different types of input. On the user side of the equation, there are validation controls, designed to help preserve data quality, without jeopardising its speed or user-friendliness.
- It is an intuitive and very user-friendly application, supported by a full user manual and process manuals written to facilitate users’ everyday tasks.
- It is a multi-entity tool, so that it can be used with several independent balance sheets and scenarios and can be configured for management by users with different profiles and roles.
- It is a modern tool: every aspect was created from zero. It can handle any market scenario (e.g. negative interest rates) and factors in the latest regulatory requirements for customer behaviour models.
