Deutsche Postbank (Postbank) has started using SunGard’s Adaptiv Analytics for fast calculation of Monte Carlo value at risk (VaR). Adaptiv Analytics will help the German retail bank control the computing power required to manage its enterprise-wide trading volumes and increase performance and transparency of its valuation calculations, analysis and models.

Adaptiv Analytics is being used in combination with SunGard’s Adaptiv Risk Cube to manage group-wide market risk reporting affiliates. Through this combination, Postbank will be able to calculate and analyze over 30,000 risk simulations per trade across risk factors.
