Edge Laboratories AG, known as Edgelab, is a privately held financial technology company based in Switzerland. It curates financial data and provides investment intelligence to asset and wealth management professionals.[1]
History[edit]
The company was founded in 2013 and first went to market at the end of 2016.[2] Since then its solution has been deployed in a number of banks and wealth managers, as well as third-party vendors with global reach.
Product[edit]
Edgelab provides a wide range of risk analytics for multi-asset class, including complex products like derivatives and structured products.
Metrics include risk measures (Expected Shortfall, VaR, Volatility), option greeks (Delta, Vega,...), fixed income (Duration, Convexity,...) and credit sensitivities. They incorporate multiple sources of risk (market, credit, interest rate and FX risk) and take into account portfolio diversification effects. Edgelab's risk methodology differs from the classical approach as it doesn't compute the risk of a portfolio through a linear combination of a limited number of risk factors (typically ~100). The proprietary risk model uses fine grained approach which includes all possible risk factors affecting an instrument’s price and performs a full valuation to capture correctly all non-linearity of assets’ payoffs and dependencies occurring between them.
The company also produces stress analysis on historical and macro scenarios and provides portfolio construction functionalities, which takes into account bank guidelines and client constraints. Moreover it performs risk classification of instruments (PRC) and portfolios which allows financial institutions to ensure full compliance with investor protection regulation (e.g. MiFID II).[3]
Its solution is cloud-based and risk analytics are delivered via API. They can be accessed through third-party sell-side solutions or directly through the API.[4]
Awards[edit]
Edgelab was recognized as a MarketPlace Provider of the Year 2017-2018 by Temenos.[5]
