Numerix Launches Single Name API for Convertible Securities, Expanding Kynex Platform Capabilities

New API empowers clients with programmatic access to Kynex convertible bond analytics, delivering ease of use, flexibility, speed, and scalability in the cloud.

Numerix, a leading capital markets quantitative analytics technology provider, today announced the launch of a Single Name API add-on for Kynex, its integrated platform for convertible securities and bonds valuation, new issue pricing, portfolio and risk management. The API empowers clients with greater flexibility, ease of use, speed and scalability in convertible bond analytics and risk management, reinforcing Numerix’s strategy of delivering API-driven solutions across its product suite.

The Single Name API lets clients access Kynex’s valuation engine through custom applications. Clients dynamically feed in real-time inputs such as credit spreads, volatility, and stock prices and instantly receive outputs including fair values, Greeks, implieds, and other risk measures. Clients can leverage the API to run scenario analysis, stress testing, and large-scale back testing, all seamlessly integrated with their existing workflows in Python, .NET, Excel, or other environments. 

Results are returned in lightweight JSON, making it easy to connect with databases, spreadsheets, or proprietary systems, while static assumptions such as dividend treatment are stored within Kynex’s portfolio analytics for ease of use. By making these capabilities programmable, Kynex delivers comprehensive coverage and cloud-driven scalability, enabling institutions to accelerate decision-making while reducing infrastructure burdens.

“This new Single Name API represents a natural extension and important enhancement of the Kynex Analytics Library,” said Russell Goyder, Chief Analytics Officer at Numerix. “By offering direct API access, clients can integrate our convertible bond analytics directly into their trading and risk systems, run their own scenarios, and accelerate decision-making, all with the reliability and scale of our cloud-based infrastructure.”

Kynex Single Name API is a pure SaaS, cloud-based solution hosted on Numerix’s infrastructure. Clients no longer need to manage servers, maintain terms and conditions, or support internal data storage, benefits that streamline operations while improving reliability and scalability.

“Client demand has been a driving force behind the development of this new Single Name API, with roughly 30 to 40 percent of our clients requesting the capability,” said Satyam Kancharla, Chief Product Officer at Numerix. “Now, with dynamic scaling powered by AWS, we can deliver a solution that meets the market’s flexibility and performance needs. This release adds to the powerful Kynex platform, reflecting Numerix’s commitment to continuous innovation and its leadership in convertible and fixed income analytics.”

Numerix is currently offering a free 14-day Kynex trial. Interested firms can complete a short form to get started, and a Numerix representative will reach out to learn more about their requirements.
