Clearing & Accounting of Treasury Transactions
Throughout the broad range of instruments handled by the system, matching, confirmation, settlement and cash flows generation may be achieved without human involvement. Events such as exercise decisions, resets, corporate actions and calculated cash and physical settlement are supported. This generates a Straight-Through-Processing environment which implies that users must only focus on warnings messaging and exception handling. An integrated solution to cover all cleared and non-cleared OTC derivatives defined under the new regulation of EMIR.
