Real-Time Insights for Intraday Risk Management: iSAM Securities RADAR

Written by Dennis Weissert | 7/Jun/2024

iSAM Securities has recently expanded its technological offering with the introduction of iSAM Securities RADAR, a real-time risk analytics dashboard allowing users to manage risk through intraday monitoring of book performance and profitability.

Risk management is an essential part of navigating the financial markets, serving as a means to maximize profitability and optimize trading volume. Designed with dealing desks, risk managers and CEOs in mind, iSAM Securities RADAR is capable of aggregating data across multiple servers and platforms for oversight across the entire brokerage down to detailed information about individual client accounts.

The platform offers a comprehensive suite of features tailored to enhance users’ decision-making and streamline risk management processes, including:

  • Trade pattern alerting
    Fully customisable alerting parameters and ticket tracking, providing the tools to identify and react to trading patterns. Rapidly flag accounts trading outside of the defined risk tolerance for review.
  • Account detailed view
    Deep dive analytics with the ability to review the end-user account trading summary, and drill down to the details of each symbol traded.
  • Aftermath
    Visualise the profitability of each client account calculated at prices both pre and post inception of a trade. Indicate sharp behavior and risk at different time intervals, and possible abuse.
  • Flow Explorer
    Fully particularized flow audit dashboard delivering unrivalled transparency and insight into trading activities and risk exposure, for reporting and investigations.

iSAM Securities, Head of Technology Business Development, Dennis Weissert commented, “We believe that many offerings currently on the market do not provide adequate intraday monitoring built into their standard platforms. iSAM Securities RADAR represents a significant step forward in risk management technology by incorporating end client trading behaviour alerting and investigation, speed, and unmatched detail into one platform. The needs of our clients underscore all innovation at iSAM Securities, and we pride ourselves on delivering this to the highest standard.”

iSAM Securities, Managing Director, Sam Johnson added, “We see RADAR as an extremely competitive offering that provides our clients the tools to maximise profitability through granular analysis of intraday exposure and trends. In providing an element of customisability, our clients are able to tailor RADAR to suit their specific needs and successfully monitor and manage their risk.”
