Enhanced post-trade solutions to tackle your 2022 challenges
13 December 2021
This year saw increased regulatory hurdles, a push for
sustainability and accountability, and the continued specter of
COVID-19 shape the corporate actions and securities processing
world. IHS Markit listened to the needs of our buy-side and
sell-side communities to enhance our products to help your firm
grow in 2022 and beyond.
Our Corporate
Actions and Securities
Processing platforms provide a state-of-the-art, low-code,
configurable user experience, with risk and control dashboards to
enable efficient management of the exception-based workflow. We've
enhanced the user experience with a graphical toolkit, which
assists users and team leaders in understanding immediate and
longer-term priorities. The UX was built using the latest web
standards and technologies, incorporating an enhanced API
suite.
Additionally, as mandated by W3C regulations in Europe, our
platforms support responsive design across a range of key UI's, to
ensure platform screens render on a variety of devices, windows or
screen sizes and support high-contrast changes.
Streamline your corporate actions
onboarding
Our pre-configured, standardized, cloud-based Corporate
Actions SaaS solution enables buy- and sell-side firms to
onboard within a four-month period, providing a low TCO and the
ability for clients to realize tangible business benefits within a
very short timeframe. This platform delivers direct connectivity
towards the DTCC SMART network, eliminating complex integration
efforts while enabling clients to utilize corporate actions
automation via the latest ISO 20022 messaging standards.
Stay on the right side of new disclosure
rules
Within our Integrated Proxy Voting
solution, our platform delivers the SRDII requirements for
shareholder disclosure and communication across meeting lifecycles,
disseminating meeting agendas and capturing voting preferences and
confirmations with the ISO 20022 format for shareholder
identification and proxy voting.
Manage cash penalty regime fines
Our Securities
Processing platform supports the cash penalty regime of the
CSDR regulation, in which penalties for settlement failure will
drive market participants to ensure settlement finality is
implemented. These fines, calculated and levied by the depositories
for late matching and settlement, can be posted to a client's
account periodically on a net basis within our platform, while all
communication can be managed via the SWIFT 15022/20022 message
protocols.
Gain transparency through real-time corporate actions
data
Our Managed
Corporate Actions solution provides unlimited access to
corporate action data and allows customers to view full details in
real-time, including event-level data, dates, options, terms and
conditions, and restrictions. We offer access to a variety of data
vendors through our platform, allowing customers the flexibility to
select the vendors they want to work with, which can provide them
further control over cost. Our portal and real-time file deliveries
allow our customers complete transparency.

Validation Service provides a managed service that delivers
rigorously reviewed and validated golden-source corporate actions
data based on your firm's requirements, eliminating time-consuming
and error-prone manual reconciliation and validation of agent
messages for corporate actions. Our people, expertise, and robust
