Anticipating demand for timely settlement of collateral, EquiLend has created a new triparty connectivity service helps to expedite the agreement and communication of required value (RQV) figures, while ensuring clients always know the status of their trades.
EquiLend clients can submit values for all of their counterparties in one place. Group instruction functionality enables agent lenders to instruct triparty trades at the underlying principal level and match against a single borrower trade amount.
The service facilitates the pre-matching of trades before they are sent in real time to BNY Mellon. BNY Mellon responds with updates that EquiLend processes, generating individual trade statuses viewable on the EquiLend user interface.
The new service is intended to not only enhance EquiLend鈥檚 post-trade efficiencies, but also to benefit BNY Mellon鈥檚 current Auto Deal Matching offering.
Brian Lamb, CEO of EquiLend, said: 鈥淗aving conducted an extensive build and beta phase with BNY Mellon and our clients, we are confident that EquiLend鈥檚 offering to communicate and process RQV figures is best in class. We look forward to continuing our work with BNY Mellon for the benefit of the market.鈥
James Slater, global head of securities financing at BNY Mellon, said: "In today's fast-evolving marketplace, clients are increasingly focused on managing risk, complexity and the need for greater transparency. BNY Mellon has a long history of helping our clients in these areas. This new service is further evidence of our commitment to enhancing the connectivity of BNY Mellon's tri-party system for both lenders and borrowers."
