Zanders Helps Financial Institutions Accelerate Risk Workloads at Scale with NVIDIA

Utrecht, The Netherlands – September 3, 2026 – Banks and asset managers are under relentless pressure to make risk calculations faster, more accurate, and more cost-efficient without adding to already-stretched IT budgets. Zanders, the global treasury, risk, and technology consultancy is working with NVIDIA, to help address this challenge. Zanders brings deep domain expertise in quantitative finance and treasury risk, integrated with NVIDIA AI infrastructure for accelerating risk workloads.

This approach, from business case to production, helps financial institutions accelerate risk model execution, improve compute cost efficiency, and support more accurate pricing workflows across their most demanding workloads.

Risk teams at major banks are running computations that take hours when they need them in seconds. Accelerated computing can be a powerful approach but only when paired with genuine quantitative expertise. That is exactly what this collaboration delivers: NVIDIA accelerated computing, implemented by people who understand the mathematics of financial risk as deeply as the technology.

What This Means for Financial Institutions

For CROs and CFOs, this collaboration resolves one of the most persistent frustrations in risk technology: the gap between what AI infrastructure can theoretically deliver and what firms can actually implement. Zanders provides the quantitative finance and NVIDIA accelerated compute expertise to deploy them in production-grade risk environments.

• Faster risk calculations: Models accelerated by NVIDIA AI infrastructure can help shorten overnight batch runtimes, enabling intraday risk views and faster regulatory reporting.
• Lower compute costs: Migrating risk workloads to NVIDIA AI infrastructure can help improve cost per calculation compared to traditional CPU-based architectures, freeing budget for higher-value work.
• Improved pricing accuracy: • Increased simulation throughput allows more precise valuation of complex derivatives, reducing model risk and improving hedge effectiveness.
• A proven path to enterprise AI: Creates a tested, scalable compute foundation that banks can extend into generative AI, fraud detection, and broader AI factory initiatives across the enterprise.

A Proposition Built on Proven Delivery

NVIDIA AI infrastructure enables financial institutions to move beyond the limitations of traditional CPU-based workflows, accelerating risk model execution and processing large-scale portfolios in real time. With Zanders as a specialist implementation collaborator in the financial risk domain, institutions now have a practical route to realizing that potential with the quantitative depth and regulatory awareness the sector demands.

Going forward, the collaboration gives Zanders opportunities to coordinate with NVIDIA's technology ecosystem, while giving NVIDIA specialist financial-risk expertise — a high-value, mission-critical market where deep domain knowledge is essential. Planned go-to-market activity will span Europe, the US, and Asia Pacific.

Zanders brings genuine depth in both quantitative finance and GPU implementation. Financial services is a mission-critical sector where that combination of expertise is exactly what institutions need to move from pilot to production.
