Deposits Service

Deposit eligible securities into The Depository Trust Company (DTC) more easily with centralized processing and automated services that help reduce complexity and increase efficiency.

Deposits Service

Simplify Securities Deposits

Depositing securities can involve multiple handoffs, manual documentation and limited visibility into transaction status. DTC’s Deposits Service gives Participants a centralized way to deliver eligible securities into the depository for book-entry processing, safekeeping and recordkeeping. Once accepted, deposited positions are credited to the Participant’s account and can be used within DTC’s broader settlement and asset-servicing environment.

By consolidating deposit processing through trusted market infrastructure, firms can simplify operations, improve visibility into deposit status and maintain more consistent records of their holdings. Centralized processing can also reduce manual handling, support faster exception management and help lower the operational risks and costs associated with moving and safeguarding securities.
