Demonstrating its commitment to help financial services institutions grow profitably and optimize risk-adjusted performance, Oracle today announced a comprehensive and integrated suite of financial services analytical applications for enterprise performance management (EPM).
Now more than ever, financial institutions and regulators are focused on the need to measure and meet performance objectives adjusted for risk, price products to reflect their true risk, and better understand how performance is impacted by threats to liquidity and capital adequacy.
This Oracle Financial Services analytical applications EPM suite builds on Oracle's vast experience in supporting many of the world's most demanding, high-volume and high performance financial institutions over the last decade.
It is based on the merged capabilities of Oracle Financial Services Applications (OFSA), Oracle's Hyperion, PeopleSoft EPM, and Oracle Reveleus applications. Oracle worked with a 17-member customer advisory board on every step of the design process.
The applications are all built on the same financial services data model and applications architecture as the Oracle Reveleus suite of enterprise risk management applications, making it easier for customers to add additional applications with only marginal incremental investments.
With the release, Oracle is now uniquely positioned to help financial institutions seeking to actively incorporate risk into decision-making, and define and manage plans crossing risk and performance management using best practice processes and techniques.
