FRTB (Standardized Approach) product of the year: Atoti FRTB SA
The judges called ActiveViam’s Atoti FRTB SA an important platform for financial institutions navigating the complex regulatory landscape of the Fundamental Review of the Trading Book (FRTB). They noted the solution excels in three key areas: reporting, explaining and optimizing, making Atoti FRTB SA an indispensable tool for banks striving for FRTB compliance.
The complete transparency offered by Atoti FRTB SA enables banks to justify their figures to auditors and regulators. Atoti FRTB SA does not just report risk figures; it allows analysts to trace discrepancies back to their data sources.
The judges said:
“The emphasis on explanation and optimization — areas where other FRTB SA solutions fall short — makes this a deserving winner.”
The judges called out the platform’s advanced optimization capabilities, which allow banks to explore a range of scenarios and make better capital charge allocation decisions. Judges also noted that with its quick deployment – possible within just four to six weeks – Atoti FRTB SA is an attractive solution for institutions that need to meet regulatory deadlines swiftly and efficiently.
The platform’s support for multi-jurisdictional compliance is another important differentiator, allowing financial institutions to meet the requirements of different regulators around the world simultaneously.
Best use of cloud: Atoti with DirectQuery
Atoti took home its second consecutive win in the best use of cloud category. ActiveViam’s DirectQuery functionality for Atoti represents an important shift in how financial institutions handle cloud data. DirectQuery allows Atoti to query external databases directly, without having to load data into memory beforehand. This innovation expands the scalability of Atoti, enabling users to handle cloud-sized datasets that exceed the capabilities of traditional in-memory systems.
The judges said:
“A clear innovation that has been developed over the past couple of years, DirectQuery allows clients to access large datasets at minimal cost.”
As data volumes grow, the cost of processing large datasets becomes prohibitive. With DirectQuery, ActiveViam addresses this issue by enabling users to perform complex analytics without the need for excessive data duplication or memory consumption. The solution supports a variety of data warehouses and lakes, including Amazon Redshift, ClickHouse, Databricks, Google BigQuery, Microsoft Azure Synapse, Microsoft SQL Server, Dremio and Snowflake.
DirectQuery also enhances flexibility, as it allows for real-time OLAP cubes that start up in seconds. Time and cost of project deployment are reduced, while dynamic, on-demand analytics are enabled across vast datasets. A recent enhancement to DirectQuery includes the ability to use aggregate tables, which optimize memory usage and speed up query responses by pre-aggregating and caching selected data.
DirectQuery reduces operational costs while maintaining high performance by allowing IT teams to determine which parts of the dataset should be kept in memory for immediate access and which should remain stored in long-term storage. It provides a consistent semantic layer across cloud and on-premises environments, allowing applications to move between infrastructures without losing functionality.
