Intraday Cash Flows & Liquidity Projections

Empower Treasury teams to improve financial performance through more efficient cash utilization and HQLA retention

With cash and securities spread across accounts with multiple custodians / paying agents, firms struggle to effectively manage liquidity and project cash balances in real-time. Without a single view of cash and securities, firms are inaccurately forecasting cash balances, inefficiently managing cash buffers, and leaving cash balances uninvested. This ultimately exposes these firms to liquidity risk while also creating a significant drag on performance.

By harmonizing cash and securities across depos, nostros, and internal accounts, Transcend empowers treasury and collateral management teams to make smarter intraday cash and liquidity decisions across the enterprise.

Take Control of Your Firm’s Exposure

Automatically ensure counterparties are posting adequate and sufficient collateral to improve governance

An effective counterparty risk management strategy should include a process to proactively validate whether collateral postings satisfy terms in order to comply with regulatory and audit requirements. While collateral pledgers have a host of solutions at their fingertips to allocate collateral, collateral receivers often lack the tools to test collateral adequacy and understand the reasons for exceptions.

Transcend’s Collateral Validation Service harmonizes collateral balances with eligibility schedules and reference data to automatically verify whether the collateral meets business and legal terms. The service also enables you to clearly understand and address the source of the validation breaks before they create financial risks for your firm or clients.

Capture Cleared Margin in Your Optimization Strategy

Streamline margin and collateral decisions across your CCPs

For many firms, increased collateral requirements from CCPs due to heightened market uncertainty and volatility represents a daily challenge since cleared margin management requires coordination across front, middle and back-office functions. As margin obligations and collateral movements are often manually processed in product-specific operational silos and each CCP has its own interface, it is challenging to integrate diverse exposures into an enterprise-wide strategy.

CCP Central addresses these challenges by providing pre-built connectivity to CCPs, enabling a holistic and real-time view into obligations and balances that can be acted upon by key stakeholders, without the need for internal development resources to set up and maintain multiple complex CCP integrations.

Mitigate Margin Risk

Powerful rules & alerts framework

CCP Central enables users to define rules and alerts when specific criteria are met. A flexible validation engine empowers clients to customize rules and alerts to very specific, tailored needs.

Sample CCP Central Rules
