Kamakura Corporation

US financial software company Kamakura has become a world leader in risk management software and consulting. What distinguishes the business is its academic understanding of the processes its software underpins. One of the experts behind the organisation is Cornell professor Robert Jarrow, who, along with founder Dr Donald van Deventer, has played a huge role in the development of its products. Clients in the banking, insurance and investment industries use Kamakura’s software widely, and the organisation has built a reputation for seamless, faultless products that are easy to implement. Some of the areas its singular software helps with are credit risk, market risk, liability management – as well as reporting.
