Firm’s leadership position across the Asian region helps secure top five rankings in five out of six categories for derivatives pricing & risk analytics for second straight year

New York, NY – October 18, 2010 – Numerix (www.numerix.com), the leading provider of cross-asset analytics for derivatives valuations and risk management announced today that the firm has been ranked among the top five in five out of six possible derivatives pricing and risk analytics categories for the second straight year, in Asia Risk Magazine’s survey and ranking of technology vendors for 2010.

Numerix took top five honors in the commodities, equities, foreign exchange, interest rates and hybrids / cross-asset categories in the pricing and risk analytics sections of the survey.

Of those major vendors also mentioned as being among the top five, Numerix has existing partnerships with all four. The strategic integration of Numerix’s pricing libraries into the trading and risk systems of its vendor-partners, along with the firm’s ability to provide pricing and analytics for the most complex products, were important contributors to Numerix’s top five ranking in the survey.

“We could not be happier with the outcome of the Asia Risk Survey and to also be ranked solidly among our peers and vendor-partners,” said Steven R. O’Hanlon, President and COO of Numerix. “The survey results serve to validate our strategic objective to align strongly with our partners in the industry, and to provide our Asian customers with access to the independent pricing models they demand to create a sound and transparent valuation and risk management process for even the most complex instruments.”

Readers were asked to nominate the companies that provide the best products across categories
such as market risk, credit risk, trading systems, analytics and front-to-back-office systems, based on functionality, usability, performance, return on investment and reliability. The current Asia Risk ranking follows Numerix being named “Technology Provider of the Year” in both the America’s and Asia for the fourth and third straight years respectively by Structured Products Magazine in May and September 2010. The Asia Risk rankings also follows the May 2009 Celent Report which identified Numerix as the leader among its peers providing advanced technology and functionality for pricing derivatives products, breath of cross asset coverage and depth of client services.
