Threat Finance & Market Intelligence

WatchCen24™

WatchCen24™ is a 24/7 capability to monitor global capital and commodities markets for actionable intelligence using seasoned market professionals, open and private information sources, and proprietary analytics. WatchCen24 offers a unique combination of capital markets experience and intelligence tradecraft designed to support customer requirements.

WatchCen24 provides a warning capability for certain large-scale terrorist attacks and longer-range indications and warnings of strategic threats. WatchCen24 also provides broad-based analysis of market trends with implications for national security and international stability.

Market prices are more than just single data points; they are the summation of innumerable preferences, intentions, actions and reactions of global market participants. Just as markets efficiently aggregate this information, it is possible, using quantitative analytics, to disaggregate it to uncover the actions, intentions and implicit forecasts of market participants. Trading by individual participants creates perturbations and other signals that are reflected in the form of price, volume and other data anomalies. These anomalies are detectable through algorithmic analysis of historical time series and exploitable through logical methods, behavioral modeling and seasoned judgment.

WatchCen24 has the capability to provide 24-72 hours advance warning of certain large-scale terrorist attacks. It can detect geopolitically motivated market manipulation such as Russia in natural gas, Iran in oil or Venezuela in currency markets. Together with other intelligence, it can provide longer-range warning of major geopolitical threats such as a Chinese invasion of Taiwan, an Iranian attack on Israel or a North Korean attack on Japan. WatchCen24 can also provide ongoing insights into more nuanced phenomena such as changed intentions of Sovereign Wealth Funds or covert financial assaults.
