TRADE AUTOMATION
Achieving straight-through processing in the trade lifecycle can provide firms with many benefits, such as reduced costs of trading, clearing and operations, and the ability to increase trade volumes, quickly enter new markets and capitalize on new opportunities.
Fully integrated straight-through processing enables greater access to liquidity with a service linking all the areas of the investment chain. STP, in its entirety, is expected to provide all affected financial services players with tremendous benefits, including greatly shortened processing cycles, reduced risk and lower operating costs. In addition, STP can help reduce errors through lost or wrongly input orders, speeding settlement, reducing risk, and cost of capital.
