8–12 Years | Beacon by CWAN | India
Beacon is a cloud-native, cross-asset risk analytics and quantitative development platform used by top-tier asset managers and banks . It provides a transparent, extensible environment for building, deploying, and scaling valuation models, pricing libraries, and risk analytics across asset classes — including derivatives, structured products and fixed income — combining pre-built financial applications with a flexible developer infrastructure that enables quants and model developers to write custom pricing and valuation logic, run scenario analysis, and integrate models directly into front-office and risk workflows, all without the constraints of legacy systems.
