About Cube Risk

Cube Risk is a risk management software from Cube Finance designed for listed derivatives. It combines portfolio management, compliance features, and macro functions to help organizations monitor and manage risk effectively. The software includes tools like CUBE PORT, CUBE PMS, and FINVA PORT for comprehensive portfolio oversight, as well as FINVA AML for compliance with regulatory standards. Cube Risk supports both SaaS and on-premise deployment options, making it adaptable to varying organizational needs. This flexibility allows users to choose the configuration that best suits their operational requirements. Key capabilities: Portfolio Management Compliance Macro Functions SaaS Deployment On-Premise Deployment Best for: financial institutions that need to manage and monitor risk in their derivative portfolios.

Cube Risk from Cube Finance is a comprehensive, high-performance risk management platform designed for both private and institutional clients involved in trading listed derivatives, offering a powerful combination of real-time analytics, preventive scenario modeling, and robust reporting capabilities. Its standout feature is the ability to calculate positions, margins, and potential losses in real time, allowing traders and risk managers to proactively identify exposures and assess the impact of market fluctuations before they materialize. The platform leverages native clearing-house models to produce margin calculations that accurately reflect real-world settlement parameters, both intraday and at end-of-day, ensuring that risk assessments are precise and actionable. Cube Risk also provides proprietary risk indicators and computes sensitivity measures, or “greeks,” translating them into monetary values and generating payoff-profile charts to visualize complex derivative structures clearly. Users can run scenario-based simulations, including user-defined shocks, and even model potential trades before execution to understand their impact on overall portfolio risk and margin requirements.
