Is Your Legacy Quant Code Holding You Back?

Banks and financial institutions face critical performance bottlenecks with legacy quantitative libraries:

  • XVA and FRTB calculations taking 30+ minutes instead of seconds, making real-time risk management impossible
  • Cannot add AAD without massive refactoring of QuantLib or proprietary C++ libraries
  • Missing out on modern CPU features (AVX2/AVX512, multi-threading) in existing codebase
  • Expensive cloud compute bills for overnight batch processing of regulatory calculations

MatLogica: Drop-In Modernization for Your Existing Code

Our pioneering Code Generation AAD™ technology transforms your existing C++ and Python code into optimized, AAD-enabled machine code at runtime. No templates. No extensive refactoring. No architectural overhaul.

Whether you're running proprietary library, QuantLib, Open Source Risk Engine (ORE), or a combination built over 10-20 years, MatLogica integrates with minimal code changes—typically less than 1% of your codebase.

Phase 1: Proof of Concept

Accelerate a single pricing model (e.g., Bermudan swaption, exotic option) to validate 6-100x performance gains in your specific environment (1-2 weeks)

Phase 2: Pilot Production

Deploy to subset of portfolio for real-world validation with actual market data, trading books, and risk scenarios (2-3 months)

Phase 3: Full Deployment

Roll out across production systems (on-premises, cloud, or hybrid) with ongoing optimization and support

How MatLogica Transforms Your Code

Code Generation AAD™

Patented runtime code generation eliminates tape overhead entirely. Unlike traditional tape-based AAD (CppAD, Adept, dco/c++), sensitivities are computed faster than original function execution. Greeks calculations complete in milliseconds, not seconds.

Auto-Vectorization

Automatically exploits AVX2/AVX512 SIMD instructions to process 8-16 scenarios simultaneously per CPU cycle. Legacy scalar code transformed into vectorized machine code without manual optimization.

Safe Multi-Threading

Automatic parallelization without race conditions across all available CPU cores. Scale from single-threaded legacy code to 64+ core workstations without threading expertise.

Works With Your Existing Infrastructure

Compatible with:

  • Proprietary C++ libraries: Legacy pricing code, risk systems, portfolio analytics
  • QuantLib: Direct acceleration of pricing engines, models, and term structures
  • ORE (Open Source Risk Engine): XVA calculations, exposure simulation, collateral modeling
  • Python analytics: NumPy/SciPy-based research code, backtesting frameworks
  • Custom DSLs: Domain-specific languages for derivatives pricing

Deployment flexibility: On-premises Linux/Windows servers, AWS/Azure/GCP cloud, hybrid environments. Runs anywhere your existing code runs. GPU support coming soon with zero code changes required—same codebase automatically targets GPUs when available.

See It In Action: QuantLib + MatLogica

We've accelerated QuantLib-based Open Risk Engine's XVA calculations as a reference implementation showing exactly how MatLogica works with the world's most popular open-source quant library.

What You'll See:

  • Minimal code modifications required (drop-in type replacement)
  • Performance benchmarks: CVA, DVA, FVA calculations
  • AAD implementation without tape overhead
  • Production-ready deployment patterns
  • Comparison with standard QuantLib

Key Results:

  • 6-100x speedup on XVA calculations
  • Greeks faster than pricing (no tape overhead)
  • Full portfolio risk in seconds instead of hours
  • FRTB sensitivities near real-time
  • Works with existing QuantLib code

Production Use Cases

Real-world applications where MatLogica delivers immediate business value:

XVA & FRTB Compliance

Transform overnight CVA/DVA/FVA calculations into near real-time analytics. Major European bank reduced overnight portfolio risk from 8+ hours to 2 hours while cutting intraday risk from 30+ minutes to just a few minutes. Calculate thousands of FRTB sensitivities with 15-20x speedup vs manual adjoint differentiation. Real result: 50% grid cost reduction with capacity remaining for business growth.

Historical VaR & Stress Testing

Process years of market data for historical simulation VaR in minutes instead of overnight. Run thousands of stress scenarios with full Greeks for regulatory stress testing (CCAR, EBA). Enable intraday VaR updates.

Model Calibration

Calibrate complex multi-asset models using Monte Carlo with automatic AAD gradients—no special attention needed. Production-proven with Dupire local vol (Equity/FX), Cheyette models (Commodity/Interest Rates), and hybrid models. Client stated: "We AADC-record simple Dupire volatility calculations, regression-based continuation value calibration, and Monte-Carlo based Cheyette model calibrations with no special care needed to back-propagate adjoints." Enable intraday recalibration for volatile markets.

Cloud Cost Optimization

Reduce AWS/Azure/GCP costs while improving performance. Real result: Major European bank achieved approximately 50% reduction in grid capacity costs through 8x+ faster overnight batch completion (8+ hours to 2 hours with 50% cash saving). The speedup means same workload completes using fewer instances and shorter runtime, with remaining capacity available for future business growth. Works in any cloud environment where your existing code runs.

Real Production Results: Tier 2 European Bank

Challenge: Proprietary risk management system using manual adjoint differentiation struggled with 8+ hour overnight batches and 30+ minute intraday risk calculations. Manual adjoint code required 2-3x more lines than pricing models and was difficult to maintain.

Results After MatLogica Implementation:

15-20x

Faster vs manual adjoint + Bump&Revalue

8hrs → 2hrs

Overnight portfolio risk batch

70%

Code reduction eliminating manual adjoints

~50%

Grid cost reduction

Performance Impact:
  • Intraday risk: 30+ minutes → few minutes
  • Standard structured note: 5 min → 18 sec (16x)
  • Single AVX-2 core: 10-20x speedup
Business Benefits:
  • 3-4x quant developer productivity increase
  • 100% reliable P&L explain (was noisy)
  • New revenue streams via online portal
  • Capacity remaining for business growth

Implementation: 3 months to first results (10-20x speedup), 9 months to full production with Dupire local vol (Equity/FX), Cheyette (Commodity/IR), and Hybrid models. Total effort: 9 quant-months—3x faster than manual approach.

Technical Comparison: MatLogica vs Alternatives

Approach Performance Gain Code Changes Required AAD Capability Integration Time
MatLogica 6-100x <1% of codebase Greeks faster than original pricing 1-2 weeks POC
Manual optimization 10-20%(expert-dependent) 10-30% of codebase Manual finite differences 6-12 months
Template-based AAD (CppAD, dco/c++) 0.5-2x (tape overhead) 30-60% refactoring Yes (with memory overhead) 12-24 months

Cloud horizontal scaling Linear (expensive) Minimal None 1-2 weeks

Note: Performance gains vary by workload. Monte Carlo and XVA calculations typically see 20-100x improvements. PDE-based methods see 6-30x improvements.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much code do I need to change?

Typically less than 1% of your codebase. MatLogica works as a drop-in type replacement—you change variable declarations (e.g., doubleidouble) at key entry points, and the compiler handles the rest. Your algorithms, business logic, and architecture remain untouched.

Will this work with my 10-year-old C++ code?

Yes. MatLogica supports C++11 through C++20 and works with legacy codebases dating back to the 2000s. We've successfully accelerated 15-20 year old pricing libraries without modernization requirements.

What about Python code?

MatLogica accelerates Python code (including NumPy/SciPy) the same way as C++. You can mix C++ and Python in the same application with unified AAD across both languages.

Do I need specialized hardware or GPUs?

No. MatLogica runs on standard x86_64 CPUs (Intel/AMD) available in any modern server, workstation, or cloud instance. GPU support is coming soon and will work with the same codebase—no code changes required to target GPUs when available.

How is this different from finite differences?

Finite differences require running your pricing function 2n+1 times for n sensitivities (slow, numerically unstable). MatLogica's AAD computes all sensitivities in a single adjoint pass, faster than one forward pricing calculation, with machine precision accuracy.
