2 Our Profile much-net AG is specialised in sales, maintenance and development of a standard software for the valuation and management of financial products. The core of our development work is the implementation of financemathematical methods and models. The selfdeveloped standard software solution PMS (Portfolio and Risk Management System) is a modular software system marked by broad and deep functionalities for an extensive range of financial instruments. The system s scopes of application range from front and middle to back office. S t r e n g t h e n y o u r b u s i n e s s... I m a man of simple tastes. I m always satisfied with the best. (Oscar Wilde) PMS is applied successfully across Europe. It does not only serve as a basis for in-house installations provided and maintained by us for several decades, but also for much-net s outsourcing services. The PMS standard software solution is an independent platform, i.e. it does not depend on particular producers of operating systems and databases. Owing to its corporate and financial structure, muchnet is completely autonomous in its decisions and in the provision of services. These are crucial factors that ensure flexibility and integrity when trying to meet our customers individual needs. 2 2

3 ...with our solutions Our Target Audience Many particular circumstances that result from a German Federal State s status as non-balancing authority and permanent debtor, more requirements to comply with auditing standards, the desire for a higher independence from bank ratings and the necessity of an increased automatisation - these are the main reasons why Ministries of Finance decide to use a risk management software, especially in the Treasury, Risk Control and Collateral Management department. We provide standard but also customised approaches that can be combined to create a SOLUTION tailored to your financial ministry s needs. 3 3
