Reval, a provider of derivatives risk management and hedge accounting software, says the latest release of its software-as-a-service solution, Reval 10.1, provides customers with new tools and modules that let them streamline the financial risk management process. The Cash Flow at Risk module helps companies decide what, how and when to hedge by looking at future cash flow scenarios for various asset classes, including interest rates, FX and commodities, Reval says, while the new Exposure Management module helps companies use fewer external trades to manage a large portfolio. Reval also says that with Reval 10.1, it has completed the integration of its platform with that of FXall, an electronic foreign exchange portal, so that FX trades executed on FXall will automatically flow into Reval's valuation and hedge accounting engines.
Feeling a little more cautious about your company's short-term investments? Institutional Cash Distributors (ICD), a money fund portal, has launched an application that lets companies assess the risk exposures of the institutional money market funds and separate accounts in which they invest. Transparency Plus, which is available free of charge to organizations that invest via ICD's portal, provides data on the underlying positions and counterparty exposure of more than 95% of the 200 funds available on ICD's platform, giving companies more information with which to make investment decisions. The information about the funds is updated bi-monthly.
BNY Mellon is also providing organizations that use its cash investment portal, Liquidity Direct, with more information on their short-term investments.

BNY Mellon currently provides data on 10 of the 37 fund families whose products can be accessed on the portal, but it says it expects that number to increase going forward. The information is updated monthly, the bank says.
