Our resources cover all aspects of the regulatory reforms, OTC derivatives market and the impact of using a central counter party (CCP). Our resources consider the benefits and business opportunities associated with OTC clearing, as well as the implications of the reforms on IT systems, risk management and regulatory compliance.
All financial institutions recognize that they must have some form of OTC clearing and collateral management solution in place by the end of 2012. Some financial institutions find themselves without a clear executable plan to deliver this important service, even though the budget for this may have already been approved. The immediate challenge is therefore to get a robust solution into production.
