Securities Processing

Securities Processing, originated from IHS Markit, supports an organization’s post-trade securities processing requirements across a range of client types and business lines.

Post-trade architectures have evolved without strategic oversight or direction. These complex technology architectures result in excessive layers of process duplication and increased operational risk. This solution addresses the industry need to simplify and optimize the post-trade technology landscape through its multi-entity architecture and flexible account structure. Institutional custody, retail and wealth management clients are supported from a common platform. This enables common business processes to be supported from a single platform which simplifies an organization's business architecture model when operating across these business functions.

Flexible configuration options support each unique market, while seeking to create common services to optimize efficiency and minimize risk. Operations staff can easily view and prioritize tasks via user-friendly management dashboards that provide real time risk profiles of upcoming tasks. Our unique industry validated analytical tools enable our clients to transform their operational environment post implementation using real time analytics to optimize their operations.
