Origins
CIG was founded to provide the most appropriate business and technical solutions to complex problems in the financial
services arena. In practice, this translated into providing clients with innovative designs and leading edge development techniques and support
for middle and back office complete trading solutions. The firm’s initial assignments included the design and implementation of an MBS trade support
system for a major international securities firm, which lead to the development of a full-featured front and mid-office trading system for debt and
derivative products.
Experience
Building upon increasing knowledge of securities practices, financial software
packages, and integration issues, CIG provides an array of management consulting services which included additional areas
such as systems evaluation, systems integration, business process re-engineering (BPR), and vendor package software evaluations.
CIG also has provided Risk Management solutions with the installation of a market risk management system for a primary Government securities
broker/dealer. This system employed industry standard quantitative techniques such as stress testing, VAR, RiskMetrics and Monte Carlo simulation.
A credit risk management system was implemented allowing a major on-line broker to monitor millions of positions and to provide real-time alerts
when designated conditions were detected.
Data Warehousing, from design through implementation and reporting, is another area of expertise.
Additional Recent Initiatives
More recent initiatives include data acquisition and pricing efforts
in the SubPrime MBS market. As the credit crisis has unfolded, institutions require better information on what assets back asset backed securities
in order to analyze both qualitatively and quantitatively the risks they undertake. CIG provided solutions provide an informational advantage
to market participants in an increasingly complex environment.
Other initiatives include the incorporation of compliance and systems security.
Compliance offerings encompass solutions for the reporting requirements that address the risk management and compliance requirements on new regulation.
