LTD Collateral Management System

LCH Ltd’s system for processing and managing margin

Overview

The Collateral Management System (CMS) is the heart of LCH's margin processing proposition for our members.

The CMS is an online collateral management application hosted on the LCH Portal which puts you in control, enabling you to prefund margin, recall excess margin and substitute posted collateral, while enhancing transparency on the status of instructions and reducing the risk of errors or omissions.

The CMS enables Clearing Members at LCH Ltd to:

  • Instruct movements of securities and cash to/from the clearing house or transfer securities and cash between mnemonics and sub accounts
  • Instruct and update triparty collateral transactions
  • View online security, cash and triparty balances and headroom as well as online liabilities by account and market and collateral valuations for cash, securities and triparty transactions
  • Receive email notifications of instructions and instruction status updates
  • Export instruction and balance data to .csv files
