Overview
Transforming credit union balance sheets for strategic growth.
The ALM360 Trade Simulation module from QuantyPhi is designed exclusively for credit unions seeking smarter, data-driven balance sheet optimization.

How does the Trade Simulation module work?
The Trade Simulation module is designed to close the gap between idea and execution.
Model Multiple Strategies
Simulate buy, fund, or swap scenarios with instrument-level analytics and portfolio optimization. Evaluate several paths side by side and choose the combination that best balances income, risk, liquidity, and policy constraints.
Real-Time Analytics
See projected impacts on ALM, liquidity, and capital before executing trades. The system updates positions and reports automatically after each transaction, so you always have the latest data.
Transparent Marketplaces
Move confidently from simulation to execution and benefit from full transparency into investment and loan inventory and pricing.
Integrated Reporting
Produce on-demand reports covering duration, yield, credit exposure, and contribution to risk. Consistent numbers across analytics and reporting mean less time assembling packets and a clearer story for stakeholders.
