Investors and managers demand access to portfolio data and real-time analysis. Yet most firms are stuck with backward-looking (ex-post) metrics that tell you what happened, not what could happen.
Conversations around 'risk' with clients are difficult—it needs to be explained in simple, easy-to-understand terms. Not just numbers, but what they mean in the portfolio's context.
On the institutional side, the challenge isn't whether risk capability exists—it's whether you have the technology to get answers to clients in real-time.

Using real-time APIs to get Holdings, Reference, and Market data from your existing data management system (IBOR/ABOR). We don't require batch file transfers—everything happens via API in real-time.
Yes. Integration of all necessary market data is through your existing data management system. The same data used for performance and accounting is used for calculating risk analytics—eliminating reconciliation issues. We can also integrate with Bloomberg, Reuters, or EDI sources if needed.
Because integration with your data management system uses APIs, users can make calculation requests through Dolphin's web interface or programmatically. Upon request, necessary input data is obtained from your systems and calculations are performed in real-time—no overnight batch processing required.
The platform includes comprehensive ex-ante analytics (VaR, CVaR, Stress Testing, Scenario Analysis, What-If Analysis, Liquidity Analytics, Sensitivity Analysis), ex-post metrics (Tracking Error, Sharpe Ratio, etc.), security-level analytics (Duration, Convexity, Greeks), and specialized measures like EaR and EvE. Use the feature navigation above to explore each capability in detail.
Vega is not a SaaS provider—we don't host your data. Dolphin-Risk is deployed in your cloud environment (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) or on-premise infrastructure. Your IT team manages the deployment, and your data never leaves your environment. This gives you complete control over security, compliance, and data sovereignty. We provide subscription-based licensing for the software.
Let us show you how real-time risk analytics can transform how you manage portfolios and serve clients.
