Settlement Status Manager

Driving settlement finality via a centralized platform to monitor all settlement activity.

• About

  Settlement Status Manager is a platform that gives clients the ability to review updates, manage their operational workflow and communicate on transactions throughout the settlement lifecycle. By centralizing and standardizing exception processing across a common shared platform and providing detailed post trade analytics, it enables faster resolution and delivers a significant reduction in the number of future exceptions. For trades that do fail, the platform will help to facilitate management with CSDR specific data points, tracking information and indicators.
