Riskfuel

AI-driven derivatives valuation and risk analytics

Overview

Riskfuel provides AI-accelerated valuation and risk sensitivity calculations for derivatives used by banks and insurers. It trains deep neural networks on clients’ existing CPU models to reproduce their outputs, then deploys the neural nets on GPUs to deliver results in seconds instead of hours. The service uses a packaged neural net with the same API as the client model, preserving accuracy while dramatically increasing speed. Its goal is to enable real-time portfolio valuation and risk analytics, helping institutions manage risk, boost trading activity, and reduce compute costs.
