In this latest episode of Ahead of the Curve, our host Scott Sobolewski chats with James Mac Hale – Head of Acadia Market Data about the monumental task of creating a centralised market data library of over fifty thousand different types of daily curve inputs as part of the Acadia hosted service to support firms in their risk and pricing calculations. The podcast provides tips and advice for firms that are using or thinking of using the Open-Source Risk Engine (ORE) and highlights the importance of putting in the time and effort into planning the inputs into your risk engine to reap automation benefits down the line.
