Drusus for Compliance and Risk
The analytical foundation for risk teams whose work is increasingly evidence-based.
Risk and compliance functions have, over the past decade, moved decisively from a documentary discipline to an evidence-based one. The regulator now expects the firm to demonstrate, with data, that its risk models are calibrated correctly, that its concentration limits are observed in practice, and that its stress scenarios reflect the regimes the business may plausibly encounter. The tools available for this work are, at the institutional tier, expensive; at the prosumer tier, often inadequate.
Drusus is positioned to provide the analytical foundation for the risk and compliance teams of small to mid-sized firms. It is not a regulatory reporting tool; it is the analytical instrument that sits behind the report, providing the verified market context, the scenario modelling, and the risk decomposition that the report rests on.
Capabilities
The Drusus features most relevant to work in this domain.
Value-at-Risk computation
Proper VaR with modelled correlations, supporting both the routine risk reports and the ad-hoc analyses that compliance enquiries demand.
Stress scenario modelling
Monte Carlo simulation calibrated for the specific regimes the firm may encounter, supporting the stress-testing requirements of internal risk policy.
Concentration analytics
Holding-level decomposition that surfaces concentrations the firm's aggregate view may obscure.
Verified data provenance
Every figure the platform surfaces is traceable to a named primary source with a time-stamp; the audit trail is built in, not bolted on.
Regulatory horizon scanning
Drusus Insights and Drusus Daily surface the regulatory developments that bear on the firm's permitted activities, providing the awareness layer that supports compliance posture.
Where Drusus Fits in the Workflow
Drusus sits behind the regulatory reporting and policy-monitoring tools the firm already uses, providing the analytical depth that those tools do not themselves produce. For risk teams of two to ten professionals working at firms below the major-bank threshold, this is typically the right division of labour.
What This Is Not
Drusus is not a regulatory reporting tool, an AML transaction-monitoring platform, a sanctions-screening service, or a substitute for legal counsel on regulatory matters. Where Drusus produces analytical outputs that find their way into regulatory submissions, the firm retains full responsibility for the accuracy and appropriateness of those submissions.
