Avoid Inefficient or Excessive Collateral Use: Rapidly Identify, Assess, Optimise and Mobilise your Assets

Identify

  • In real-time, margin requirements, cash, non-cash and excess at CCPs – configured to your specific strategy to manage requirements.
  • In real-time, all available assets (both encumbered and unencumbered) across your universe of locations.
  • Be alerted in real-time to changing balances or obligations, such as when there is a change in excess held at a given venue that breaches your predefined thresholds.

Assess

  • Real-time information about the sources and uses of cash and non-cash collateral in conjunction with up-to-date eligibility schedules, including haircuts, collateral usage fees, interest rates, concentration limits etc.
  • View this information across all venues, alongside other business inputs, via a single source of aggregated and normalised data (UI or API).
  • Then review the opportunities this insight generates to enhance your use of cash and non-cash collateral.

Optimise

  • The value and composition of collateral allocations with automated rules configured for your specific requirements to optimise.
  • Schedule the optimal times to orchestrate automatic placement on an event-driven basis or based on your recommended cadence.
  • Alternatively, leverage your own optimisation tools with the benefit of the connectivity and data that Baton supports.

Mobilise

  • All assets as instructed quickly and efficiently with direct CCP, custodian and nostro account connectivity.
  • Instruct multiple (bulk) cash and collateral pledge and recall movements in real-time via a single consolidated dashboard to all venues.
  • By integrating Core-Collateral with your existing payment systems, there’s no need to re-key movement instructions, removing the constraints associated with operational capacity and eliminating operational risks.
