One Connected Platform for Pre-Trade Validation, Post-Trade Automation, and Regulatory Compliance

Equilend connects reconciliation, trade lifecycle automation, settlement, collateral management, and regulatory compliance into a single environment, so front-office, operations, and compliance teams can resolve fails, meet reporting deadlines, and manage exposure without stitching together separate systems. 

SPEAK TO OUR EXPERTS

Manual pre- and post-trade processes are slowing settlement and raising regulatory risk

Rising post-trade complexity

Settlements are getting harder. The T2S settlement rate fell from 97.63% in 2019 to 93.29% in 2022, while incorrect or missing SSIs cause roughly 30% of trade fails. Manual processes and fragmented workflows add further complexity, increasing the risk of settlement delays, breaks, and regulatory exposure.

Connected post-trade operations

T+1 compresses the timeline for fixing what goes wrong. Firms will have up to 80% less time to resolve failed trades when the EU, UK, and Switzerland move to T+1 in October 2027.   Most operations and compliance teams are managing these pressures across disconnected systems: separate tools for reconciliation, returns/recalls, SSIs, and regulatory reporting. Post-Trade & Regulatory solutions bring those workflows into one connected environment, built on the trade data firms already have.

How operations and compliance teams use Post-Trade & Regulatory solutions

Clearing fails before they become CSDR penalties 

Settlement Monitor compares mandatory settlement fields at the point of trade and throughout the lifecycle, helping firms meet CSDR settlement requirements by identifying mismatches before they become penalties. Operations teams resolve breaks on screen instead of chasing counterparties by email.

Managing recalls and returns on a T+1 timeline 

Recalls, Returns, and Settlement Monitor link recall notifications directly to return bookings, with real-time MQ messaging and DTCC ARMS connectivity. This real-time processing supports the recall and return automation the EU T+1 Industry Committee has flagged as a high priority for 2026. 

Meeting SFTR and 10c-1a deadlines from one data feed 

SFTR and 10c-1a reporting draw on the same trade and lifecycle data captured through Equilend's platforms. Compliance teams manage UTI generation, data enrichment, and submission from a single dashboard ahead. 

Reconciling collateral across multiple tri-party collateral agents 

Exposure Management pre-matches RQV figures with tri-party agents and reconciles market value discrepancies down to the account level. Collateral teams get intra-day visibility instead of waiting on end-of-day files. 

Part of one connected Equilend ecosystem

Post-Trade & Regulatory solutions runs on the same OneFile data feed that connects to NGT for trade capture, and Spire for books and records. Data entered once flows through every downstream workflow.
