Together with DTCC who are transforming their Trade Information Warehouse (TIW) we are confident that our enhanced platforms will go live in August 2022. Extensive and successful integration testing between TradeServ and the TIW means that we would like to welcome firms back into our user acceptance testing (UAT) environments from February.
Coordination with DTCC
Currently, DSMatch and the DTCC TIW share technology architecture for credit derivatives. In a highly coordinated migration, both firms are upgrading technologies and working to ensure that customer-facing change is as limited as possible. We continue to coordinate closely with industry participants to ensure that firms are adequately prepared for the transition across our entire network of buy and sell side, clearing houses vendors and service providers.
