Capital Markets

Every trade your desks book has to settle and be funded, in every market you operate in. The Messaging Hub carries the settlement traffic and the bank-to-bank payments behind it, in MT and ISO 20022, on your own infrastructure.

The message side of every trade

Capital markets operations sit between the trading desks and the network. Their message volume grows with every desk, market, location and clearing.

Settlement volume arrives in bulk

Each securities trade becomes an instruction to a custodian or CSD, followed by status reports, confirmations and statements, often in large daily batches from each market. T2S already runs on ISO 20022, and the rest of securities messaging is expected to follow.

Liquidity moves across locations and clearings

Funding flows run between your own branches and the RTGS systems you settle in, each with its own ISO 20022 usage guidelines, from CHATS in Hong Kong to RITS in Australia.

FI payments are now ISO 20022

Under CBPR+, funding, cover and FX settlement payments travel as pacs.009, while many trading and settlement systems still produce MT202.

Back offices still speak MT

Settlement and payment systems were built on MT540 and MT202. Rebuilding them for every market's ISO 20022 variant is expensive, so the translation has to happen between them and the network.
