The drive to make the murky world of credit derivatives more transparent to end-users is taking a leap forward with the launch of two developments linked to RiskMetrics Group.
The financial analytics and technology firm, spun off from JP Morgan in 1998, has launched a credit pricing assessment tool called CreditGrades backed by Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase, which dominate trading in credit derivatives.
RiskMetrics also announced that it would incorporate data from CreditTrade, the electronic broker and information provider in credit derivatives, into its DataMetrics system, making it easier for risk managers to integrate credit default swap prices.
