Local market clearing system for Investment Banks and Stockbrokers

Since 'Cross-border' trading is now customary, it becomes a challenge for Investment Bank or Stockbroker to process their trades – they can either settle on a local broker within the overseas market or establish a local broking business in the overseas market.

Contemi’s D-Clear handles specific local market functions and Depository & Exchange messaging communication requirements. It allows Investment Banks and Brokers to deploy their corporate settlement systems in local markets where they have established broking operations without having the overhead or develop and maintain specific local functionality in that system.

D-Clear acts as an interface between the Depository & Stock Exchange and the firm’s own settlement system and takes care of all the specific processing and messaging requirements enabling the firm’s system to be deployed across all markets more efficiently.
