Collateral, lending & liquidity solutions

Innovation and digital solutions by leveraging cutting-edge technologies

When it comes to the regulatory and risk-related part in the trading of financial instruments, collateral and liquidity management plays an important role. “Collateral” designates assets given as a guarantee by the buying (or borrowing) party to a trade. In case of a default, these assets can be used by the selling (or lending) party. The primary aim of collateral and liquidity management is to ensure that a trade settles when and as expected, thereby avoiding costs arising from failed trades for the involved parties – all by reducing liquidity and credit risk exposures and thus contributing to the stability of the financial system as a whole.
