Clearstream,
a post-trade services provider owned by the Deutsche Börse Group, has unveiled
its latest innovation, the Collateral Mapper, a data-driven solution designed
to optimize collateral management.
The
Collateral Mapper provides clients with an automated, comprehensive view of
their collateral positions, enabling well-informed decision-making. By
presenting complex collateral usage data in an intuitive dashboard, it
evaluates an equity portfolio’s collateral potential and identifies spare
capacity for inventory rebalancing toward equity, revealing opportunities to
free up high-quality assets. The Collateral Mapper’s automatic updates based on
end-of-day data eliminate errors and manual intervention.
According
to Clearstrem, collateral management relied traditionally on extensive manual
processes, leading to inefficiencies, high costs, and errors. Market
participants are constantly seeking ways to streamline, reduce errors, and
enhance efficiency in the process.
Priya
Sharma, Clearstream’s Head of Data & Connectivity, noted that the current
interest rate environment has prompted a renewed focus on collateral
management.
“We at
Clearstream combine the power of high-quality data and pre-emptive analytics to
provide clients with innovative and reliable insights. With the Collateral
Mapper, we enable them to maximize their collateral pool across different asset
classes. Today, more than 10 per cent of triparty repo collateralisation is
taking place in equities, bringing potential to optimise eligible inventory,”
Sharma added.
Clients can
access the Collateral Mapper as a self-serve tool via Clearstream’s Xact
platform, with a free 3-month trial period.

Marton
Szigeti, Clearstream’s Head of Collateral, Lending and Liquidity Solutions,
emphasized that providing clients with dependable, scalable, and cutting-edge
solutions to reduce frictional trading costs through automation and
transparency is at the core of their collateral management strategy.
“We at
Clearstream are the innovation partner of choice in digital post-trading, an
expertise that we are bringing to bear in the transformation of the collateral
management space,” Szigeti commented.
Another Collateral Management
Move after OSCAR
Clearstream
launched its own collateral management tool in June 2022 with the collaboration
of Intelli-Select, a Brussels-based fintech company. The Own Selection Criteria
with Automated Reasoning, or OSCAR, is the market’s premier collateral
management solution, distinctively integrating multiple artificial intelligence
methodologies.
Samuel
Riley, the Head of Investor Services & Financing at Clearstream, stated that
OSCAR has the potential to reduce the time needed for establishing and
negotiating a collateral bank from weeks to mere hours.
“Like
this, Clearstream provides an enormous relief for client operations who can
create individual, yet machine-readable collateral baskets to maximize the
value of their business’s collateral,” Riley then stated.
In a
related development, Clearstream recently joined forces with FNZ, a prominent
global wealth management platform. This partnership aims to boost transparency
throughout the asset management sector in the UK and Europe.
