The new calculations enable clients to run pre-trade SIMM analytics through Bloomberg\u2019s Multi Asset Risk Solutions (MARS) using Acadia\u2019s IMEM CRIF data capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>MARS SIMM is an optimization tool that allows traders to improve their front office decision making in light of the current Uncleared Margin Rule framework. The integration enables clients to run SIMM pre-trade analytics through MARS SIMM using Acadia&#8217;s Initial Margin Exposure Manager (IMEM) CRIF capabilities. Firms will have the ability to import their respective CRIF files via Acadia to MARS in order to determine their margin exposure and adjust their portfolios\u2019 allocations to minimize custodial costs incurred by exposures of over $50 million.<\/p>\n<p>As part of the longstanding initial margin rule framework created by the Basel Committee and the International organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO), the remaining stages require a broader range of institutions to face the implemented exposure obligations. Baked into those requirements is the expectation that firms who surpass an exposure threshold of $50 million, will calculate an initial margin using ISDA\u2019s SIMM, which can result in added costs and residual stipulation for impacted firms.<\/p>\n<p>The addition of the pre-trade SIMM analytics expands Bloomberg\u2019s existing post-trade integration with Acadia. Since 2018, the service has enabled market participants in-scope for the calculation of initial margin for uncleared derivatives access to risk sensitivities calculation services both through Bloomberg and Acadia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are pleased to expand our partnership with Bloomberg,\u201d says Fred Dassori, Chief Product Officer, Acadia. \u201cThe additional capabilities that we\u2019re making available to MARS clients that use IM Exposure Manager, Acadia\u2019s most widely used tool for initial margin reconciliation, address a need for visibility into expected future IM exposure and enables clients to make more informed trading decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our expanded integration with Acadia will provide our clients a more comprehensive solution that enables them to better manage derivatives risk, while helping to minimize costs related to their exposures,\u201d said Jose Ribas, Global head of Risk &amp; Pricing Solutions at Bloomberg. \u201cWe remain focused on providing our clients with enhanced risk management tools and functionality through MARS that optimize their workflows, while helping them comply with regulatory requirements.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>MARS SIMM is accessed through Bloomberg\u2019s Multi Asset Risk System (MARS), a comprehensive suite of risk management solutions.
