DLT in Post-Trade: The Business Case for Securities Lending and Collateral Management is Here

DerivSource's Living The Trade Lifecycle

Distributed ledger technology (DLT) has been touted as a potential game-change for the post-trade processing space, yet many financial organisations continue to sit on the side lines waiting for the business case to be made. In 2022, we have seen the pioneers behind DLT adoption showcase the applicability of this technology to specific areas of post-trade and the benefits it yields.

In this episode of the DerivSource podcast, Living the Trade Lifecycle, Martin O’Connell, solutions architect at HQLAᵡ , explores a particular business case where the adoption of DLT is already making strides in one post-trade space – securities financing and collateral management. So, whether you’re at the heart of your firm’s digital innovation strategy or new to DLT, listen in today to hear more about what is working today and how it may shape 2023 and beyond.
