LexiFi: an innovative provider of software applications and infrastructure technology for the capital markets industry

LexiFi offers specialized software applications and a technology platform to capital market participants and companies serving the financial markets.

LexiFi has created the world's only formal description of financial contracts* to enable the industry to manage financial product diversity. LexiFi's uniform and platform-independent contract representation approach radically simplifies the development of sales support, trading, risk management, and processing applications for cash and derivative products.

Unlike other financial contract modeling approaches, LexiFi's award-winning formalism supports both pricing and operational management. LexiFi's ingenious pricing framework is designed to link contract definitions with in-house, third-party, and LexiFi valuation engines; to facilitate the development of risk analyses; and to reuse calculation platforms while benefiting from a unique contract description. LexiFi's robust operational management framework enables the systematic detection and processing of contract events.

Investment banks, asset management firms, and private banks rely on LexiFi to deliver tailored solutions while containing the costs and risks of managing heterogeneous portfolios, allowing them to build a business that scales.

LexiFi also helps software vendors and service providers to enhance existing applications with valuation, risk management, and processing capabilities for financial derivatives and structured products.

LexiFi guides clients and partners through all phases of a project and offers expertise in financial instruments, mathematical finance, risk analysis, pre- and post-trade business processes, and theoretical and applied computer science.

(*) A formal description of financial contracts enables the creation of product definitions that can be read by a human being and processed by a computer, and that satisfy at least four goals: (i) describe the rights and obligations of the parties both precisely and exhaustively; (ii) lend themselves to manipulations of all sorts, for example, for the purpose of pricing a contract, estimating its market and credit risks, or managing its clauses; (iii) adapt automatically in response to life cycle events; and (iv) do not depend on a technical environment—e.g., a programming language or paradigm.
