STP for Bespoke Instruments
Institutions can now extend straight-through processing capability to any type of deal using solutions from Numerix and our partners, including many leading trading and risk systems.

For example, Numerix is embedded into the BLOOMBERG PROFESSIONAL® service, providing coverage for even the most exotic instruments within the standard Bloomberg workflow. The user can design and price a new deal type using Numerix Bloomberg Edition and then upload it to a private Bloomberg trade repository called NXDL. Once the deal is in NXDL, it can be instantly repriced with live market data, distributed for client review, internal approval and risk management, and booked into order management systems.
