Indeed, the OTC Collateral will help customers and clients compensate and ultimately curb collateral disaggregation and optimize the allocation giving them the capacity to cover over-the-counter, triparty and central counterparty (CCP) exposures from a single consolidative pool. Clearstream’s new bilateral OTC Collateral service is seen as a complement to its present offering of triparty solutions. The fundamental difference lies in its extensive operations' capabilities, not strictly relegated to OTC derivative exposures. The new management service also syncs with the Global Liquidity Hub service, meaning clients are granted the full extend of Clearstream’s versatile asset suite.
