Objectives

The bank wanted to improve its FX trading, compliance and liquidity management with several key objectives:

  • Foreign Currency Trading Insight Gain greater visibility into foreign currency trading activities, particularly during the transition of US Dollar clearing to Bank of America.
  • Regulatory Compliance Fulfill the BCBS 248 requirements mandated by the Canadian regulator, OFSI, to ensure adherence to regulatory standards.
  • Operational Efficiency Focus on reducing operational liquidity buffers to enhance overall liquidity management.

The solution

The SaaS or on-premise model, coupled with Realiti’s high-performance architecture, ensured minimal intrusion. Since the initial deployment of Realiti’s core Cash Control solution, the bank has added to its Realiti capabilities. The implementation was noble, with a rapid progression from deal signing to global go-live deployment in just a few months.
