We analyse, monitor and proactively manage our risks in order to be well-equipped for such disastrous events as market turmoil, hacker attacks, defaults of trading partners.
Market risk is held in check
Risk exposure to price fluctuations of bitcoin and other assets is controlled and limited: our algorithms are tuned in a way to take only very short-term market exposure up to a certain threshold while remaining market neutral most of the time.
We control and constantly improve system latency to avoid any market risk due to delayed execution.
We react to market conditions swiftly by reviewing our risk limits.
Operational risks are limited
The algorithms have a system of various trading limits, that are dynamic and reactive to market and liquidity change.
We keep diversifying our liquidity sources and establish direct connectivity to them to improve robustness and decrease round-trip delays.
We implemented robust credit risk management
Each counterparty undergoes credit risk assessment to establish an appropriate limit.
Limits are monitored and updated regularly.
To maintain the limit the counterparty is required to keep the positive equity with us.
