What is Atoti Limits?

Atoti Limits is an optional add-on for Atoti applications. It provides a centralized solution for defining, monitoring, and investigating risk limits. This page is intended for users familiar with Atoti applications and risk management concepts. Atoti Limits is designed for banks, hedge funds, and asset managers. It supports real-time control of limits across all organizational levels.

​
Why use Atoti Limits?

Managing risk limits across trading desks requires complex aggregation calculations, often evaluated in real time. When a breach alert is raised, the data needed to investigate it is frequently scattered across multiple systems, making analysis slow and increasing operational risk. Atoti Limits addresses both problems in a single solution. Key benefits include:
  • Centralized definition and monitoring of limits at every aggregation level.
  • Immediate access to related analytical data during breach investigation.
  • A configurable workflow that controls limit creation, updates, and approvals.
  • Support for user-defined limits to enable management by exception.
  • Integration with existing organizational hierarchies and processes.

​
Who is Atoti Limits for?

Atoti Limits is used by risk and control teams across the organization. Typical users include:
  • Operations and control risk teams.
  • Analysts and traders.
  • Desk heads and risk managers.
Common use cases include:
  • Monitoring risk limits across desks and asset classes in real time.
  • Investigating breach alerts by drilling down to underlying data.
  • Adjusting limits without direct IT involvement.
  • Ensuring compliance with internal risk policies and regulatory requirements.

​
How does Atoti Limits work?

Atoti Limits creates a dedicated limits cube within the Atoti application. This cube connects to all other analytical cubes, providing direct access to the relevant data when investigating a breach alert. Limits are evaluated at every aggregation level using the Atoti query engine, ensuring that no potential breach is missed. A configurable workflow system controls who can create, modify, and approve limits. This supports governance while allowing business users to adapt limits as conditions change.

​
What is the relationship to other Atoti products?

Atoti Limits is an add-on to an existing Atoti application. Atoti Limits is commonly used with:
  • Atoti Sign-Off, which manages end-of-day data validation and approval.
  • Atoti Scenario Analysis, which supports hypothetical and stress testing analysis.
Atoti Limits and Atoti Sign-Off are often deployed together. This combination supports both intraday limit monitoring and end-of-day control processes.
