Corporate Actions, originated from IHS Markit, supports the end-to-end automation of corporate actions and income processing, from announcement capture and validation to complete downstream processing. This solution offers an extensive range of functional features with global coverage of major events, markets and asset classes to help you increase productivity and focus on delivering value-added services, while reducing risk by providing real-time monitoring and control.

The operational process for corporate actions is complex and laden with risks. The market and event type based variations in the transactions coupled with manual tasks, lack of standardization and deadline driven nature often result in errors. These errors range from incorrect information dissemination to missed and incorrect elections and can cause huge financial, efficiency and reputational losses to financial institutions.

Operations staff can easily view and prioritize tasks via user-friendly management dashboards that provide risk profiles of upcoming corporate actions events and deadlines. A multi-entity structure supporting different business segments allows you to decide which operational functions to perform at a local level and which to centralize offering benefits of cost mutualization.
