Delphi was chosen as the name of the financial product creativity, communication and control Consultancy for its classical connotations of analysis and forward planning associated with the Delphi Oracle.
The
company logo incorporates the
mathematical symbol, The Greek delta, the symbol of change, is
now widely used by financial market traders to denote a change
in derivative instrument value relative to a small change in
the underlying interest rate or currency instrument.
There is an established forecasting methodology called delphi forecasting. delphi risk management borrows from this method its use of individual and collective management experience and expertise. Whilst Delphi cannot foretell the future course of interest rates it can help, through nearly two decades of market experience, to visualise the consequences of change. It can advise on how to manage risks and plan in an ever-changing business environment. Delphi can help to take advantage of uncertainty through product development.
Treasury management assistance through Delphi control includes new-issue advice and analysis and Treasury trouble-shooting. Delphi is also called on to provide an impartial second opinion or "Health-Check" on its treasury management strategy or controls. Scope within A/LM ranges from interest rate and currency risk to liquidity measurement, capital adequacy and earnings’ volatility and the financial engineering and reverse-engineering of tax-efficient retail deposit and mortgage products.
delphi has been at the forefront of Knowledge Management. Even before the concept was invented, in 1993 it set-up a knowledge system for The Standard Bank of South Africa.

Ideas are futile if they cannot be communicated both internally and externally. Warren Edwardes is an accomplished and often invited speaker and chairman at conferences and appears on finance programmes on television.

Training in Speechcraft is available through Delphi communication.
Richard Stagg, the publisher of Financial Times Prentice Hall, inviting Warren Edwardes to author two books on derivatives wrote: "I would be keen to incorporate the style which you demonstrated in "Derivatiphobia", explaining the concepts and applications in an engaging and jargon-free manner. Let’s make it a classic and aim for it becoming the introductory bible for practitioners and students alike."
Charitable voluntary work in the form of website development and communication training is provided.
Above all, quality is maintained through the non-delegated service of Warren Edwardes.
