Overview

As financial services organizations continue their digital transformation, they’re gaining access to more data sources than ever before. This new paradigm is called extreme data and it requires new solutions to enable real-time risk management, power regulatory reporting, and run complex machine learning algorithms on financial data. However, legacy systems struggle to keep up with the increased volume and complexity of this data. The organizations that are able to gain instant insight from extreme data will take the lead. In this webinar we will discuss…

  • How a GPU-accelerated analytics engine like Kinetica can help financial services organizations to turn data into an asset that powers the business
  • Real-world use cases on how Kinetica is used for real-time risk management, compliance, and trading
  • A demo of Kinetica for risk management that provides deeper insight into risk exposure for real-time adjustments
