About Julius Finance
Julius Finance is a provider of advanced services and solutions to participants in the $45 trillion dollar credit derivatives markets. Julius develops arbitrage-free valuations of synthetic collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) which until now have been priced with largely unconvincing Copula models. Julius valuations are based on proprietary mathematical techniques which take into account the prices of all liquidly traded securities. In contrast, prior art technologies use only a segment of the data and are not guaranteed to be internally consistent.
