Collateral, Margin & Securities Finance

Solutions / Capital Markets Solutions

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.

Our solution

We help financial institutions reduce counterparty credit risk while strengthening processing and data consistency. With Adenza, you can meet today’s many challenges across margin calculations for cleared and uncleared trades, collateral management, and securities financing.

Our solution delivers a robust straight-through processing (STP) workflow that simplifies users’ needs in real time, provides comprehensive cross-asset coverage, and supports multi-agreements. Its rich connectivity enables seamless integration with utility services and tri-party agents.

Ready for a conversation? Let's Talk

On a single automated workstation, we deliver seamless collateral inputs for:

  • Pre-trade analytics
  • Trade pricing
  • VM and IM calculations
  • Risk and inventory management
  • Collateral optimization
  • Settlement processing
With our flexible, ready-to-use solution, you can get started right away knowing that you can easily adapt it to suit your needs as you go.
