AADC Solutions for Front Office Trading

Accelerate Your Pricing Models 6-1000x

AADC accelerates your existing pricing models—exotic derivatives, Greeks computation, and risk calculations—delivering 6-1000x speedups with automatic derivatives. Turn minutes into seconds, enabling real-time pricing and Live Risk capabilities.

💹

Speed Wins Competitive RFQs

AADC accelerates your existing pricing models—derivatives pricing, Greeks computation, and risk calculations. We don't provide pricing engines; we make yours 6-1000x faster with automatic derivatives, enabling real-time pricing and Live Risk that win competitive bids.

Works with your existing models—proprietary, vendor, or open-source

6-1000x Faster

Minutes become seconds. Complex exotics priced in real-time.

🎯

Free Greeks

Adjoint factor <1. All sensitivities faster than just price.

📊

Real-Time Risk

Continuous portfolio updates. Live Risk becomes practical.

From Minutes to Seconds

Current Constraints

  • Slow pricing losing competitive RFQs
  • Complex exotics taking minutes
  • Greeks computed by bumping (slow + errors)
  • Intraday risk updates not feasible
  • What-if scenarios too slow for clients
  • Hedging analysis takes too long

With AADC Acceleration

  • Real-time RFQ responses
  • Exotics priced in seconds
  • All Greeks automatic (no bumping)
  • Live Risk with continuous updates
  • Instant client what-if scenarios
  • Real-time hedging optimization

Key Insight: AADC accelerates your pricing models—whatever vendor, framework, or proprietary approach you use. Keep your models, get 6-1000x speedup and automatic derivatives.

What AADC Accelerates

AADC accelerates any repetitive pricing calculation. Here are the most common front office applications:

💰

Derivatives Pricing

Accelerates: Your pricing models—European, American, exotic options, structured products

What Becomes Possible:
  • Real-time pricing for complex exotics
  • Ultrafast RFQ responses (seconds not minutes)
  • Instant client what-if scenarios
  • Multi-asset products priced in real-time

Performance: 6-1000x speedup typical

📊

Greeks Computation

Accelerates: Your sensitivity calculations—all risk factors automatically computed

What Becomes Possible:
  • All Greeks automatic (Delta, Vega, Theta, Rho, cross-gamma)
  • No bumping required (AAD = exact derivatives)
  • Adjoint factor <1 (faster with all Greeks than without)
  • Better hedging decisions with complete sensitivities

Key Benefit: Greeks "free" (adjoint <1)

Live Risk

Accelerates: Your portfolio revaluation and risk calculations for real-time monitoring

What Becomes Possible:
  • Continuous portfolio revaluation (sub-second updates)
  • Real-time sensitivity updates as markets move
  • Instant hedging impact analysis
  • Trade with confidence seeing risk before committing

Proof: Python platform <1 year

🎯

Model Calibration

Accelerates: Your calibration routines with automatic gradients through optimization

What Becomes Possible:
  • Real-time recalibration to market data
  • AIFT provides automatic gradients through solvers
  • 10-50x faster calibration enables intraday updates
  • Accurate pricing with fresh model parameters

Performance: 10-50x faster

Works with Your Existing Pricing Infrastructure

AADC accelerates any repetitive pricing calculation—proprietary models, vendor solutions (Numerix, Murex, etc.), or open-source libraries (QuantLib/ORE). If your calculations are repetitive and performance-critical, AADC can accelerate them 6-1000x with automatic derivatives.

Business Impact for Front Office

🏆

Win Competitive RFQs

Ultrafast pricing wins competitive bids. Respond in seconds while competitors take minutes.

💡

Better Hedging

Complete Greeks enable optimal hedging strategies. Reduce hedging costs, improve P&L.

Real-Time Risk

Trade with confidence. See risk impact before committing to trades.

Python-Based Live Risk Platform in <1 Year

Major financial institution built complete analytics platform in Python (Equity Derivatives, IR Swaptions, FX Options) in less than 1 year. Replaced expensive vendor tools with superior performance and full control.

How AADC Accelerates Pricing

1

Record Once

Run your pricing model once with AADC. It records the computational graph.

2

Compile Automatically

AADC's JIT compiler generates optimized machine code with automatic derivatives.

3

Execute Thousands

Run 6-1000x faster with complete Greeks. Price thousands of scenarios daily.

Result: Your pricing models run 6-1000x faster with automatic derivatives (adjoint factor <1)
