Counterparty Position Risk Summary

Return to Overview

About

The Counterparty Position Risk Summary Matrix provides you with an overview of your risks - outstanding positions and their unrealised P/L from your counterparty, categorised according to your brokers. The matrix displays the composition of trades within a portfolio and their unrealised P/L and total open positions (the constituent assets in the portfolio are selected by the user in the Create Portfolio section) - this model does not include closed positions P/L.

The rows are the various products in the portfolio organised according to 'Broker', while the columns indicate product information such as unrealised P/L and total open positions. The table acts like a pivot table and can be categorised and organised by groups according to your needs.

You can click here to learn how to customise the table by arranging and filtering the columns based on your preference, and saving the table layout(s) as a template.

Also see Futures Contracts Codes for more information on exchange and month codes, if required.

Navigation

To access the quantitative model/report, click on 'Dashboard' from the navigation sidebar on the left.

Select the model/report from the drop-down list and click 'Create'. Click on the 'Settings' button (gear icon) at the top right corner of the model to set up your model/report.

Sharing Model/Report/Dashboard

To share the model with your group members, click on the "Share" button next to the Title of the model followed by the email address of the group members you want to share it with. Once submitted, the model will appear in the Dashboard>Group Dashboard of the selected group members.

This is different from sharing individual or entire Dashboard models/reports, which allows any user who may or may not be users of MAF Cloud to access the individual model/entire dashboard via the shared web link (link will expire in 8 hours). In Group Dashboard, only group members can access the shared models/reports.

Group Rows

You may also group the rows (liken to the pivot table function in Microsoft Excel) to view the grouped data by dragging any column headers into the “row groups” section as highlighted:

The data in the table will be grouped according to your setting and you may drag multiple column headers into the “row groups” section to group them as necessary.
