Description
The current method for processing over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives remains opaque and involves too much paper and to many manual processes. To address the limitations, on March 27, 2008, the Operations Management Group sent a letter to the New York Federal Reserve Bank detailing self-imposed improvements to the processing of these complex instruments. Their commitments will change the processing of OTC derivatives and affect the technology providers, the sell side, the buy side, and custodians. This TowerGroup ViewPoint explores the stakeholders' commitments and discusses the impact on organizations that participate in the OTC derivatives market.
