Global Corporation Action Validation Service

DTCC's Global Corporate Action Validation Service (GCA VS), operated by DTCC Solutions LLC, simplifies announcement processing by providing a centralized source of "scrubbed" information about corporate actions, including tender offers, conversions, stock splits, and nearly 100 other types of events for equities and fixed-income instruments traded in Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Americas.

For banks, broker/dealers and other financial institutions, the GCA VS transforms the way corporate action announcements are managed globally by eliminating redundant operations and technology, and by reducing the high fixed costs associated with this labor-intensive processing.

In 2008, GCA VS processed more than 1 million corporate actions from more than 160 countries, the most complete global coverage of corporate actions by any organization.

Managed Accounts Service

DTCC's Managed Accounts Service standardizes the exchange of account and investment information through one central gateway, significantly reducing operational costs, errors and the related risks.

Introduced in 2006 by DTCC Solutions LLC, the service simplifies an unwieldy and costly account set-up process, linking investment managers, sponsoring broker/dealers and service providers through one centralized, automated platform. The service also includes features that address account maintenance, corporate actions and fee billing.

Features available:

  • Account Set-Up
  • Account Maintenance
  • Corporate Actions
  • Fee Billing

Loan/SERV

DTCC, through its Loan/SERV suite of services, continues to build and expand the global infrastructure needed to support the syndicated loan market. By leveraging its vast experience in processing bonds, equities and OTC derivatives, DTCC, with its "at-cost" industry-owned governing structure, remains committed to delivering cost-effective solutions that reduce risk, boost efficiencies, improve transparency and enable the syndicated loan market to develop and grow in a rapidly changing financial and regulatory environment.

DTCC's Loan/SERV introduced two services in 2008, with both showing dramatic growth in the number of agents, customers and loan positions in a short period.

  • Loan/SERV Reconciliation Service enables agents to reconcile lender positions on individual loans every day, helping reduce "cash breaks" as well as the number of unsettled loans. This service went live in September 2008 and global loan positions posted and updated nightly surpassed 68,000 in April 2009, with more than 2,000 transactions processed daily.
  • Loan/SERV Messaging Service, launched in the fourth quarter of 2008, provides an automated, secure communication network hub through which agent banks can transmit standard loan messages to both lenders and borrowers. The service hub will route messages according to the recipient's predetermined instructions, either directly into their processing system or by displaying the messages via a Web interface based on user-defined workflow rules.
