Finnovic Shield · Real-time exposure

Know your net open position right now

Most desks find out what their exposure was, not what it is. Finnovic Shield shows the firm's net open position as your clients trade — by symbol, by group and by client — so the desk can act while it still matters.

What it does

The capability, in plain terms

Firm-wide net open position

One number for the whole book, broken down by symbol, by client group and by individual client — updating as trades land.

Margin & stop-out watch

Every account tracked from healthy to stop-out, with a closest-to-liquidation watchlist so the desk sees trouble before it arrives.

Tell hedged apart from exposed

A genuinely hedged account is not a client in trouble. Shield distinguishes the two, so your team stops chasing false alarms.

Spot crowding fast

A client-by-symbol grid makes it obvious when the whole book is leaning the same way — and you can jump from a hot cell to the client behind it.

Cover it in one click

See client exposure beside your liquidity-provider cover, spot what is uncovered, and hedge without leaving the screen.

Hedge a group as one book

Bundle a set of clients to a liquidity provider and cover them together, rather than position by position.

Told before it hurts

27 things worth knowing about are watched for you across exposure, clients and money — tuned so the desk hears signal, not alarm spam.

Numbers you can defend

The headline exposure figure reconciles back to your own MT5 report, so it holds up when finance or an auditor asks.

What you get

Why it matters to your desk

  • Act on today's risk, not yesterday's — the desk stops working from end-of-day reports that describe a position which has already changed
  • Fewer false alarms — hedged accounts and normal volatility stop pulling your team away from real problems
  • Uncovered exposure is visible, not inferred — you can see what is warehoused and decide deliberately whether to keep it
  • One screen instead of five — exposure, margin, crowding and cover in a single place your dealers already watch
  • A number you can put in front of the board — because it ties back to the platform of record
FAQ

Questions we get asked

How current is the exposure figure?
Your risk picture reaches the desk in under 400 ms, so net open position, margin pressure and crowding update as your clients trade rather than on a delay.
Does it change anything on my trading server?
No. Shield is read-first — it observes your flow without plugins, gateways or modifications to your MT5 server. Hedging actions happen only when your desk chooses to act.
Can I see exposure for one partner's clients only?
Yes. Exposure, P&L and reporting all understand your IB and parent-IB structure, so a partner's whole sub-tree rolls into one risk picture and staff only see their own branch.
