Interactive Data Corporation (NYSE: IDC), a leading provider of
financial market data, analytics, and related solutions, today announced
that its Fixed Income Analytics business will release BondEdge® Cash
Flow Analyst for Insurance beginning July 31.
This new package of capabilities is designed to assist insurance cash
flow analysts, including investment actuaries, with generating scenario
driven dynamic asset cash flow projections and analytical risk reporting
for asset-liability management of insurance asset portfolios. For many
years, analysts within the insurance industry have leveraged the robust
analytical and asset modeling tools and comprehensive security database
coverage of Interactive Data’s market-leading BondEdge service for fixed
income portfolio and security risk analysis, dynamic asset cash flow
analysis, and regulatory and rating-agency based reporting.
“Extensive customer input and years of experience in supporting the cash
flow analytics needs of insurance companies contributed to our release
of this new product designed to help address the asset modeling and risk
analysis needs of insurance portfolio asset-liability management,” said
Keith Webster, managing director, Interactive Data Fixed Income
Analytics. “Heightened regulatory requirements across the financial
sector have emphasized the importance of portfolio stress testing.
BondEdge Cash Flow Analyst employs cash flow projection and stress
testing analysis to help assist insurance companies in meeting
regulatory and ratings-agency based requirements such as New York State
Regulation 126, the AM Best Supplemental Ratings Questionnaire, and
Standard & Poor’s U.S.-based insurance risk-based capital (RBC) model.”
BondEdge Cash Flow Analyst for Insurance is available via the BondEdge
Next Generation platform, which is built on the Microsoft® .NET
Framework and provides a highly intuitive, flexible user interface.
