Case Study: Emirates NBD achieves better risk management and faster decision-making with Misys FusionRisk

Emirates NBD reduces risk and improves decision-making

Emirates NBD, a major banking group in the UAE, was struggling to manage risk data across multiple front-office systems after its merger, making real-time analysis, reconciliations, and board reporting difficult. The bank needed better control over market and credit risk, faster reporting, and a way to automate manual processes such as facility approvals and exposure consolidation. Misys FusionRisk and Misys FusionCapital Kondor were used to address these challenges.

Misys implemented FusionRisk Advanced Measures and is implementing FusionRisk Credit, integrated with Emirates NBD’s existing Kondor and Calypso systems. The solution now provides intra-day and on-demand portfolio views, real-time exposure monitoring, faster board reporting, full drill-down to transaction level, and automated credit workflow across more than 8,000 limits. Emirates NBD also calculates daily VaR across over 40,000 deals, improving decision-making, reducing risk, and speeding “time to risk” for new products.
