Certificate numbers make the difference: Two certificates can look almost identical at first glance. They relate to the same basic value, have a similar duration and even develop almost the same over a certain period of time. However, they can differ significantly in terms of risk, yield opportunities and market behaviour.
FirstCertificate metricsandLeverage, Benefits, Sideward yield, Omega, Deltaor other rating indicators make these differences visible. They form the basis for objectively analyzing, comparing and rendering structured products transparent.
For professional financial applications, these key figures are far more than additional information. You decide whether users can quickly find structured products, compare them correctly and make informed investment decisions.
Modern financial platforms need more than course datesn
Anyone who develops a financial portal, a brokerage platform or a digital banking application today must provide significantly more than current courses.
Users: they expect powerful product searches, meaningful product comparisons, transparent detailed pages and understandable risk and return indicators. This is where certificates are used.
They are used for example for:
- Product Search and Certificate Finder
- Product comparisons
- Product details
- Screening and filter functions
- Portfolio and risk analyses
- Evaluation of structured products
Certificate metrics make the difference. First the interplayMarket data, Certificate master dataandcalculated key figurescreates the data base of modern financial applications.
Why financial data infrastructure is crucial
Key figures are not unique but must be continuously calculated, validated and updated.
Therefore, a professional financial data infrastructure comprises far more than the provision of individual data fields. It ensures thatMarket data, master data and key figures combined consistentlyLupdatedandpowerful APIs and data feedsare reliably provided.
ARIVA has been developing and operating this infrastructure for more than25 years.

More transparency for structured products
The more complex financial products become, the more important are comprehensible and resilient key figures.

For providers of digital financial applications, certificates are therefore no longer an additional feature, but an essential part of a powerful financial data infrastructure.
