State Street Corporation announced it has added market leading pre-and post-trade optimization and margin analytics capabilities to its Collateral+ service. In partnership with Cassini Systems, the leading provider of pre- and post-trade margin and collateral analytics for derivatives market participants, Collateral+ now offers an integrated, modular approach to optimization, which addresses collateral efficiency from multiple angles. First, it integrates collateral and funding impact into the front-office decision strategy ahead of the trades being placed. Through the addition of Cassini?s technology, Collateral+ can optimize margin and carry cost impact, providing the best trade route by identifying all possible ways to execute and clear the trade and highlighting the lowest cost. Collateral+ can also offer margin optimization as a post-trade utility with tools such as novation and compression to lower margin and funding requirements. Another module provides true collateral inventory optimization based on clients? collateral funding costs in combination with costs such as clearing fees. This optimization highlights the optimal placement of collateral and the lowest transaction cost routes. Through the bank?s liquidity offerings, including Sponsored Repo and the newly launched Peer-to-Peer Repo, clients can leverage incremental cash and optimized securities revenues in order to effectively execute and grow their investments.
