Mathematical Finance Company provides unique software and consulting services for cash flow testing and risk evaluation for many of the financial products that are sold to investors. The heart of this revolutionary software is the Economic Scenrio Generator (ESG™ ), which uses the Double Mean Reverting Process(DMRP™ ) and hitorical algorithms. The DMRP™ is currently the only reliable two-variable model for generating economic scenarios of interest rates for both risk-neutral and realistic yield curves. The use of two state-variables in generating interest rate scenarios results in the best fit of any model that is in current use to historical stylized facts.
