SAS: Integrating Risk Solutions to Manage Market Volatility
Combining Data Management, Analytics, and Cloud Deployment to Manage Financial and Credit Risks
Abstract
The current banking and business market cycle highlights the critical need for risk management platforms, data, analytics and models. Rising inflation followed by central bank benchmark interest rate increases has led to both intended and unintended consequences for financial institutions (FIs) lacking the policies, procedures, and technologies to manage changing market conditions. However, a financial institution needs these capabilities to prepare and respond to any situation impacting it, not just the current situation.
This Celent Solution Brief examines the SAS Risk Management for Banking platform, and selected SAS data management, analytics, and modeling solutions used by financial institutions globally. Solutions discussed are SAS Model Risk Management, SAS Intelligent Decisioning, and SAS Risk Modeling. It assesses SAS in the context of the need for financial institutions to more accurately and quickly analyze data, assess risk, and make better risk management decisions both during the current banking crisis in the US and through banking business cycles in any country market.
