Polaris Software (POLS.BO), a financial technology company, has launched Global Risk Audit (GRA) for International Banks. GRA is the first real-time management system with a powerful audit functionality that is able to accurately assess credit risk exposure and liquidity across complex, high volume dynamic business transactions.
The speed, scale and agility of global banking transactions have posed a massive problem for banks in recent years. Consequently, many banks have been unable to accurately assess their liquidity exposures, profile customers and define the likely impact on the banks own P&L. The existing approach to risk management is highly ineffective especially in the context of the downturn in BFSI sector. Today, customers are demanding a rigour that goes beyond the reliance on historic management information and gives a real-time view of the market.

Bikash Mathur, Global Head, Europe, Polaris Software comments: Traditionally, the technology landscape at global banks prevented a real-time consolidated view of exposure, largely due to multiple, fragmented systems dispersed across different geographies. Naturally, the outcomes were poor management information that failed to indicate running limits, collateral and global cash positions. GRA empowers the credit risk management team to enhance the available balance check process with introduction of multiple balance computation by combining multiple balance/credit entities and accordingly frame the decisions.
