Course Description



Keeping up with global FX markets requires responsive systems that can provide almost instantaneous execution. As well, FX risk is an enterprise-wide management challenge. Many legacy systems are often in silos and do not cover FX products, loans/deposits and short-term security finance in one integrated environment that can show the true risk. Globally, liquidity management has become a market based on advanced technology, requiring an organization’s liquidity management to run on an advanced solution.


Readers of this set of modules and videos will gain will be introduced to different aspects and features of the Calypso Pricing Sheet which will equip them with the knowledge to configure and utilize the Pricing Sheet for capturing and pricing standard Vanilla and Exotic FX options such as Digitals, Barriers, Asians (Averaging), Accruals, and Lookbacks. Out-of-the-box options trading strategies such as Risk Reversals, and Spreads are discussed as well as information about building custom strategies.


This audience for the course is Front Office users, particularly trading support staff. This course may also be of value to project managers and Middle Office staff who are working on FX Options implementation projects.
