This flexibility allows clients to maximize the use of their global inventory through a secure and reliable collateralization process.

Safety, Control and Diversification

As custodian, we safekeep collateral in segregated accounts and mark-to-market daily to ensure that prescribed collateral margins are maintained. Working closely with both principal counterparties to every tri-party transaction, we automatically assess the eligibility of proposed collateral, provide multiple margins by security and apply concentration limits. By controlling all movements of collateral, we ensure that collateralization is maintained in accordance with pre-agreed eligibility criteria. With such a high degree of assurance and control, investors can use global collateral management transactions as a secure mechanism for diversifying and managing risk, as well as a vehicle for improving the risk-adjusted return on investments.
