Built on our trusted OSTTRA Connect platform, with its established network of 2,000+ firms, our solution centralises and streamlines Repo processing.

Introducing standard workflows to create a legally confirmed record which is updated through the trade lifecycle, OSTTRA Trade Processing for Repo gives complete transparency to all counterparties at every step of the workflow.

By quickly highlighting and resolving trade breaks, our solution cuts confirmation time from days to minutes, reducing cost and risk for Repo operations. Coupled with real-time trade affirmation and confirmation, the establishment of a ‘golden’ trade record allows OSTTRA Connect to be a central hub for further post-trade connectivity in the Repo market.

Automate the post-trade workflow to improve efficiency, reduce costs and increase transparency between counterparties

Trades confirmed by OSTTRA Connect can be seamlessly viewed directly in OSTTRA triResolve, driving standardisation of data for reconciliation, bringing improved efficiency, cost reduction and greater transparency between counterparties.

In addition the matched transaction can be leveraged to achieve settlement STP through SWIFT connectivity to custodians and depositories (future enhancement).

Centralised clearing house connectivity allows for a single integration point to CCPs (future enhancement to support UST Clearing mandate).
