ISITC TALKTIME: Post-Trade Efficiency and Transformation
ISITC TalkTime Podcast: Post-Trade Efficiency and Transformation
ISITC Europe talks to Bob Santangelo from Broadridge about the need for post-trade efficiency and transformation. The discussion centres around the impact that the global pandemic has had on the need for banks and brokers to transform their processes to achieve greater post trade efficiency. Which has been exacerbated due to the increase in remote working.
There is a growing understanding that running separate silo based post-trade systems, creates black holes in effectiveness. The time is ripe for financial services firms to take a fresh look at their legacy systems and operations. Manual processes can now be eliminated through investment in automation, utilising new technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Investment by firms into a centralised multi-asset solution could reduce costs, risks and complexity bringing forth increased client servicing, better compliance and an enhanced capability, to meet the ever increasing number of business and regulatory requirements.
Is there an industry need to create a more mutualised approach? Mutualisation would have the benefit of eliminating duplicate back office services and inefficiencies. There would be cost benefits but a shared service, deployed though SaaS or as a managed service raises the question of who would be the supplier?
A must read in conjunction with this podcast is ‘The growing need to invest in derivatives post-trade – Modernising post-trade infrastructure to meet the demands of the next crisis’, which has been written by Acuiti, sponsored by Broadridge.
