Very few keystrokes allow to input FX or money market deals:

Upon deal input, the simple deal characteristics are analysed by Acumen and several actions can be performed automatically based on automation set-up:

	Default values filled in: portfolio allocation (among other things) is done here, depending on deal characteristics;
	Internal deal generation: again, depending on deal characteristics, one or more deals done with internal desks can be created, with internal spread, internal desk and relevant portfolio information applied;
	Real time processing: as soon as the deal becomes a real deal, it is included in the banks portfolio, and automatically shown on relevant valuation screens;
	Paper management: depending on the deal type and action, deal tickets, fixing tickets or confirmations can be printed automatically on any printer of the bank !

The deal is translated in a schedule of dates and amounts, allowing to input any complex structure (amortised, eonia, annuity, fixed in arrears, zero coupon…).

During deal input, upon criteria, portfolio allocation is performed automatically (and user modifiable). This is user later on to create portfolios, link deals together, perform calculation on one-time portfolios…

ACUMEN performs real time position monitoring, risk calculations or back office reporting for single deals or portfolios.

Any report based on deal information or calculated figures can be produced by the user. Regulatory reports, bank reports, or personal reports are defined with a few quick clicks. Report title, columns shown and their name, sorting and grouping are all user set-up.

Any every day repeated tasks based on the same parameters but with updated rates and deals can be performed easily. First step: define your parameters. Second step: each day, just click once and let ACUMEN perform !
