The 4sight Securities Finance (4SF) and Collateral Management product suite provides an integrated front-to-back office solution for financial institutions of all sizes.

4SF is a real-time, multi-currency system for all Securities Finance trade types. It helps smaller direct lenders through to global custodians, brokers or intermediaries to manage the Securities Finance process more easily.

4sight's Securities Finance solution supports both agency and principal trading of equities and fixed income securities.

Develop Your Business with Integrated Modules

The 4sight Securities Finance solution consists of a suite of configurable modules. Each module can act as an integrated solution or as a standalone system. This allows you to tailor the system to the needs of your business:

Manage the Full Front to Back Office Trade Lifecycle

For Traders: The 4sight Securities Finance solution offers front office position management and trade booking workflow. The 4sight Inventory Manager displays security positions across your profit centre hierarchy.

You can select any level in the hierarchy and the monitor will display the positions for that level. The Inventory Manager displays the settled position for each security and forecasts future positions, giving traders a clear view of availability.

For Collateral Managers: The 4sight collateral management system allows you to view and manage exposures and provides margining workflow for Securities Lending, Repo, Exchange Traded and OTC Derivatives collateral management. You can also create and manage eligibility/haircuts/concentration schedules and optimise collateral pledges and receipts. Read more about 4sight's Collateral Management Solution

For Operations: The 4sight Securities Finance solution allows you to process trade lifecycle events such as mark to market, margin calls, trade amendments, corporate actions, recalls, returns etc.

You can process many trade events in bulk to reduce manual effort and manage high transaction volumes with minimal strain on operations. You can also manage risk through credit and settlement limits and a trade verification process that can require '4-eyes' checking of trades before instruction for settlement.

Settlement: 4sight enables you to carry out individual or multiple settlement of trades and collateral movements and manage settlement fails. The system offers automation and straight through processing around the settlement process and includes a built-in SWIFT module that creates and receives, in real-time, a wide range of ISO15022 standard SWIFT messages.

P&L, Fees and Billing: 4sight's Securities Finance solution helps you to manage, monitor and report on profit and loss at multiple levels. The system offers full support to calculate and distribute fee statements to clients.

Reporting: The 4sight Web Reporting tool allows you to query and report on a wide range of data. You can create custom reports and run automated scheduled reports that the system will send to key personnel by fax/email etc. Read More
