Treasury Markets Confirmations Matching
The Forex Confirmations Matching module is an automated three-way matching solution for treasury and derivative confirmations.
Confirmations and statuses received from a variety of sources including brokers (voice/electronic), trading counterparts and CLS are automatically compared to the institution’s own trade details, immediately highlighting errors and exceptions.
The three-way matching of FOREX confirmations includes the following sides:
-
(THEIR) Counterparty Confirmation
-
(OUR) Our Confirmation
-
(BROKER) Broker Confirmation
-
(CLS) CLS Confirmation
BROKER side information can often be used in lieu of an absent or late arriving counterparty confirmation. They can also be directly compared with any outstanding counterparty confirmations, thereby highlighting missing or late arriving (OUR side) transactions.
CLS status information can be received by the system enabling problems, such as rescinded trades or other CLS exceptions, to be investigated immediately and with the benefit of having any associated counterparty and broker confirmations at hand.
Regardless of the volume, our application is optimised for the matching of daily transactions. Real time input and multiple matching processes for different counterparties can run simultaneously to boost performance. Also, several users working on the same counterparty can examine offered matches and/or outstanding items even while the matching process is running in the background.
The application is designed to perform brokerage calculation. Brokerage can be calculated and validated using either BROKER or OUR confirmations reducing manual effort and highlighting over-charging immediately. It also includes an automatic follow-up inspection mechanism on older outstanding items for follow-ups completion.
