Integration with FINCAD F3 Adds Industry-Leading Valuation and Risk Analytics for Derivatives and Fixed-Income

Vancouver, BC, May 10, 2017 - FINCAD, the leading provider of advanced valuation and risk solutions for multi-asset derivative and fixed income portfolios, is pleased to announce that Black Mountain has integrated FINCAD’s powerful analytics into its solution. This strategic move has enabled Black Mountain to deliver an integrated risk analytics solution for CarVal Investors, a leading alternative investment manager.

Black Mountain, a provider of flexible, scalable investment management solutions, joined the FINCAD Alliance Program, and within a matter of months integrated FINCAD’s F3 valuation and risk analytics into its Everest solution. Black Mountain’s goal was to provide their clients like CarVal with industry standard risk analytics, combined with the utmost flexibility for custom risk analysis and generating cash flows.

“Working with FINCAD has been like adding a strong quant team to our existing resources. In addition to FINCAD’s powerful analytics, their professional services team is very knowledgeable and helped us successfully deliver a robust and highly customizable investment management solution to CarVal,” said Wayne Elpus, CIO at Black Mountain.

Kevin MacDonald, co-CEO, at Black Mountain added, “Embedding FINCAD risk analytics has improved our solution by giving our clients a customized view of risk across asset classes and allowing them to perform valuable ad-hoc risk analysis. CarVal is already benefitting from having on-demand access to all of the custom risk information they need, right at their fingertips. We anticipate that many more clients will want to adopt our joint solution.”

“We could not be more pleased to call Black Mountain a FINCAD partner,” said Amar Budhiraja, Director of Strategic Business Development at FINCAD. “By embedding our powerful valuation and risk analytics, Black Mountain has been able to expand their solution and grow their business, and we look forward to many more projects with them.”
