Transforming Corporate Actions Processing

Corporate actions processing automation remains one of the last remaining manually-intensive processing areas within the securities industry.

Increased volumes, growing cross-border trading/settlement activities, and greater emphasis on managing operational risk, as underscored by the Basel II Accord are serving as key investment catalysts.

Streamlining corporate actions processing is now possible with the emergence of industry standards, such as SWIFT’s ISO 15022, industry utilities, and enabling IT architectures.

Our Transforming Corporate Actions Processing provides a range of consulting and solutions accelerators – including:

• Enterprise and line of business level baseline assessments of operations costs, data quality and workflow automation needs
• Evaluation of third party solutions to improve corporate actions event data quality
• Establishing transformational blueprints which enable consolidated corporate actions processing
• Systems integration services – including integration of industry utilities for corporate actions event distribution, voluntary corporate actions event processing workflow automation, and solutions for automated reconciliation
