Case Study: Mizuho Bank achieves a holistic, near real-time view of risk with Orchestrade

Delivering a holistic view of risk at Mizuho Bank

Mizuho Bank required a holistic, near real-time view of its risk and exposure across multiple legal entities to support its expansion, particularly in agency derivatives. Its previous setup of multiple siloed legacy systems generated inconsistent data, lacked granularity, and required extensive manual processing for aggregation. The bank chose to implement a solution from vendor Orchestrade to address these challenges.

Orchestrade delivered a single platform that consolidated risk aggregation, providing intraday risk analysis and valuation on demand. The implementation resulted in higher quality data, increased flexibility, and a more robust risk management culture. Measurable results for Mizuho Bank included a significant reduction in manual processing and lower running costs through operational simplification and automation, with the entire project completed on schedule and within budget in just nine months.
