Exceptional Risk Management Tools and Online Brokerage Support 

The global futures and forex markets of today are dynamic, volatile, and highly unpredictable. That’s why it has never been more important for futures brokers to be able to monitor pre-trade and post-trade conditions and help mitigate firm and client risk in online account management.

To this end, RCG has a dedicated Risk Department, placing the highest priority on safeguarding client accounts with high-efficiency analytical and reporting tools. Previously in his career Richard J. Horgan, RCG’s Chief Financial Officer, helped to develop a risk based capital requirement model that has been adopted by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.

RCG RiskHunter™ - The Groundbreaking Risk Tool

As part of its commitment to client protection, RCG has developed RiskHunter - the first electronic tool of its kind used by a brokerage firm to assess and manage firm and customer risk across all exchanges, around the clock.

Based on Complex Event Processing (CEP) technology and using proprietary algorithms, RiskHunter tracks down key indicators that notify when a trading pattern deviates from established parameters - providing an almost instantaneous warning and triggering an appropriate response to help mitigate the risk.

Backed by a 12-person risk management team, RCG's RiskHunter is an indispensable tool to help RCG stay ahead of market volatility.
