Business Goals & Project Overview

Business Goals

Glacier operated under the weight of fragmented financial workflows and manual spreadsheet-driven processes that hindered decision-making. The client required a unified, browser-based environment to consolidate risk management, ALM analysis, and portfolio optimization. Their primary objective was to eliminate version mismatches and manual errors, ensuring that enterprise finance teams could operate from a single, reliable, and secure source of truth.

Project Overview

WebMob delivered a custom, cloud-ready financial risk and scenario analysis platform that replaces siloed tools with a centralized, high-performance ecosystem. By integrating complex computational engines with a modular frontend, we enabled the client to automate liquidity, collateral, and market exposure workflows. This enterprise-grade solution provides the scalability required for future expansion while maintaining rigorous security and compliance standards.

Challenges & Solutions

Challenges Faced and Conquered

The client struggled with disconnected financial workflows and manual data management that created significant operational risks and hindered cross-departmental visibility.

The Challenge

Fragmented Risk Workflows

Risk data was scattered across disparate tools, preventing a unified view of financial health and forcing teams to work from inconsistent information.

Our Solution

We engineered a unified platform that integrates all analytical workflows into a single data layer, providing a consistent financial picture across all functions.

The Challenge

Spreadsheet-Driven Processes

Reliance on manual spreadsheets led to frequent version mismatches, human error, and an inability to audit or trace the origin of critical financial assumptions.

Our Solution

We replaced manual files with a structured, version-controlled system that ensures all calculations are automated, auditable, and based on verified data.

The Challenge

Limited Visibility Across Teams

Different departments lacked a shared platform, making it nearly impossible to maintain consistent visibility or collaborate effectively on financial data.

Our Solution

We built role-specific dashboards that provide each team with the precise views they need, ensuring everyone works from the same data at the same time.

The Challenge

Complex Financial Calculations

The client required high-performance computation for liquidity, margin, and exposure metrics, which could not be reliably handled by existing manual tools.

Our Solution

We implemented a robust Python-based backend that handles complex financial modeling, delivering accurate, high-speed computations within a browser-based interface.

The Challenge

Security and Compliance Requirements

Handling sensitive financial data required stringent security measures that could not be retrofitted, posing a risk to institutional compliance and data integrity.

Our Solution

We built the platform with enterprise-grade security from the ground up, including tenant isolation, WAF protection, and AES-256-GCM encryption for total data safety.

Features Implemented

Key Features & Functionality

  • Key Features & Functionality
  1. Secure SSO-Based Login

    We integrated organization-based single sign-on to verify users before access. This allows IT teams to maintain full control over credentials without managing separate logins for the platform.

  2. Scenario Management

    We engineered a centralized stress-testing screen that replaces scattered spreadsheets. This enables the client to search, filter, and maintain version-controlled records for all financial scenarios.

  3. Referential Market Data

    We provided analysts with direct access to historical market data and financial instruments. This eliminates the need for external cross-referencing by offering detailed price charts and records.

  4. Portfolio Optimization

    We built a comparison tool for classical and quantum-assisted optimization outputs. This allows the client to evaluate volatility and Sharpe ratios alongside advanced efficient frontier charts.

  5. Lombard Credit Overview

    We developed a tracking module for collateral-backed lending that monitors credit exposure and LTV. It helps the client identify risk concentrations across various industries and currencies.

  6. Lombard Credit Derivatives Portfolio

    We created a derivatives screen that displays net MTM and initial margin. This enables the client to understand exposure without manually building models from raw position data.

  7. Option Margin Optimization

    We engineered a tool to evaluate hedging strategies and their margin impact. It provides the client with a structured way to model strategies using payoff-at-expiry charts.

  8. Option Margin Data Table

    We designed a detailed data table that highlights movements in strike prices and Greeks. This offers the operational detail required for the client to summarize strategy-level performance.

  9. ALM Optimization

    We built an ALM module for treasury teams to assess liquidity and funding metrics. It allows the client to compare baseline and optimized views to support balance sheet decisions.

  10. ALM Trend Analysis

    We implemented trend analysis tools to monitor assets and liabilities over time. This enables the client to identify patterns and flag potential issues before they escalate into risks.
