The Event
Welcome to the 1st Cubes In The City Event.
The Cubes In The City Event will demonstrate, through practical case studies and updates from market leaders, how Cube or OLAP technology, is able to help Risk Managers and Senior Traders in Investment Banks and Commodities Companies:

- Store trading, counterparty and risk data across the organization;
- Create a single version of the truth;
- Organize, aggregate and slice and dice data;
- Ability to query data in real time and get answers in seconds;
- Easy access to data which eases report building.

Recent developments in Cube technology are now gaining a strong foothold in Investment Banks and Commodities Companies. Due to its unique ability to store data across the organization, companies can now have a single version of the truth, which can be instantly queried using 'self-service' reporting tools that allow new reports to be generated on the fly. High performance Cubes provide the answers in seconds making long batch cycles become a thing of the past.

Senior Traders can access individual or portfolio positions in real time while Risk Managers can carry out analysis on counterparty data as well as carrying out historical and forward looking risk analyses such as: VaR, cVaR, PaR or PFE.
