RWEST uses Brady’s software to manage multiple corporate counterparties with various different margining agreements that result in a daily exchange of collateral worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
The ratings derived using the scoring module help RWEST to set credit limits for the counterparties and helps it to implement its limit policies with trading desks.
