RS Risk Simulator
Powerful Excel add-in software used for applying simulation, forecasting, statistical analysis, decision trees, econometric analysis and optimisation in your existing spreadsheet models. Risk Simulator was developed specifcally to be extremely easy to use. For instance, running risk simulations is as simple as 1-2-3 (set an input, set an output, and run); and performing forecasting (e.g. autoeconometrics, GARCH models, stochastic processes, time-series, multivariate analysis) relies on simple clicks in the software. Users can effectively focus on analysis, reports and numerical results.

SLS Real Options Super Lattice Solver
Standalone software with also Excel addin capabilities for analysing and valuing real options, fnancial options, exotic options and employee stock options. All inputs could be incorporated into custom spreadsheet models, allowing the creation of your own à la carte fully customised models, where all the mathematical equations and functions are visible. Consequently, option valuations and results are easier to understand and explain, allowing users to value fnancial and real assets, thereby quantifying flexibility and mitigating uncertainty.

Ebook: Advanced Risk Analytics
Containing the slides that will be seen during the Certification, therefore, it is focused on learning the specifc ideas and methodologies that are developed in the International Certification in Quantitative Risk Management (CQRM).

“The most relevant and valuable course that I’ve ever attended. Quantitative Risk Management is central to business survival and growth.”
