London, UK – September 2022 – Whistlebrook Limited is pleased to announce that Buckinghamshire Building Society has selected Whistlebrook’s Asset & Liability Management product, WALM®, and that the system is already live.
WALM® is a flexible and comprehensive solution for the assessment of different types of risk arising from an institution’s portfolio of assets and liabilities. WALM® not only provides a view of the current level of multiple types of risk in an institution’s portfolio; it also provides the means to assess how levels of risk change under simulated stress scenarios. Furthermore, WALM® centrally manages the generation of bespoke report packs, e.g. ALCO Management Information pack, significantly reducing overheads in MI reporting.
Scott Morton, Buckinghamshire Building Society’s Financial Controller said “In an increasingly volatile environment, effectively managing risk in the business is more important than ever. Utilising Whistlebrook’s Central Database, WALM® enables the Society to effectively measure inherent risk in the business and assess the potential impact of various stresses. The automatic generation of report packs will also significantly reduced the time taken to produce such things as our monthly ALCO pack, allowing far more time for analysis of the output from WALM®”
Andy Hudders, Whistlebrook Company Director added: “We are delighted that The Buckinghamshire Building Society selected the WALM® system and that they are now enjoying the full benefits provided by the product. Buckinghamshire Building Society and Whistlebrook have worked together for more than 15 years and another successful project for WALM® now means the Society has deployed the full suite of Whistlebrook applications, and are benefitting from the single trusted source of data from the Whistlebrook Central Database.”
