Bring Kynex’s institutional-grade convertible analytics directly into your workflow
The Kynex Single Name API extends the power of Kynex Core Analytics and Kynex Portfolio into fully automated, system-driven workflows. It provides programmatic access to the same convertible bond valuation engine and proprietary terms and conditions database that clients already trust for pricing, risk, and portfolio analysis.
Instead of relying solely on GUI-driven processes and spreadsheets, traders, quants, and risk teams can stream real-time inputs into Kynex and pull back fair values, Greeks, implieds, and yields directly into Python, .NET, Excel, OMS/PMS/RMS, and custom dashboards — all with the speed and reliability of a cloud-native SaaS architecture.
Capabilities
Power pricing, Greeks, and risk metrics through any system
Access the Kynex valuation engine directly from your applications. Stream live market inputs — stock prices, credit spreads, volatility, FX, borrow cost, and convertible price — and instantly receive theoretical values, Greeks, implieds, yields, and sensitivities in JSON. This lets teams build automated pricing engines and intraday analytics without relying on manual GUI processes.
Embed consistent analytics across enterprise workflows
Integrate Kynex analytics directly into trading systems, risk platforms, Excel models, and Python scripts. As shown on page 12 of the webinar deck, the API connects seamlessly to OMS/PMS/RMS environments, ensuring positions, hedges, and scenario outputs stay synchronized with the same assumptions and T&C data used in Kynex Core and Portfolio.
Run complex what-if analyses programmatically at scale
Vary inputs programmatically — equity moves, credit spread shocks, volatility shifts, FX changes — and retrieve Kynex-calculated valuations and risk metrics for each scenario. This supports intraday risk monitoring and comprehensive stress tests using the same model logic applied in Kynex’s horizon and scenario analysis tools.
Access accurate historical valuations for strategy research
Specify past trade dates to retrieve theoretical values and Greeks as of that day, with correct historical terms, contract features, and yield curves applied. This unlocks systematic strategy testing, model validation, and deep historical research using the same analytics engine users trust today.
Fast, scalable, always-available analytics
The API is powered by AWS cloud infrastructure, providing low-latency responses, elastic compute scaling, and 24/7 availability. Users avoid local infrastructure upkeep while benefiting from continuous updates, strong security, and resilient architecture.
Aligned results across Core, Portfolio, and API
All API outputs use the same proprietary pricing model, convertible terms database, and market assumptions as the rest of the Kynex ecosystem — ensuring analytic consistency across UI, reports, and system-to-system workflows. This preserves alignment across teams and eliminates reconciliation issues.
