Collateral, Margin & Securities Finance


A single cash and security inventory to optimally manage margin calls, allocate collateral, and trade securities finance transactions
The growing need to integrate the collateral function with the treasury and capital market trading solution is driven by new pricing, hedging, and counterparty risk best-practices, and by larger regulatory frameworks including UMR, SA-CCR, and SFTR. Facing increased demand for non-cash collateral, firms also urgently need to optimize inventory to lend, pledge as collateral, or repo. Hampered by siloed data, systems, fragmented inventories, and manual processes, firms must access data and processes across the organization to optimize their assets and cover collateral requirements.
