Financial Instruments Toolbox

Design, price, and hedge complex financial instruments

Financial Instruments Toolbox™ provides functionality for pricing, modeling, hedging, and managing an instrument portfolio. You can analyze cash flows for fixed-income securities and derivative instruments including interest-rate, inflation, equity, commodity, credit, and energy instruments. The toolbox provides a modular framework that supports a wide range of workflows and enables you to price instruments with a variety of models and pricing methods.
