How we help our clients

Bloomberg’s fully-integrated platform can meet your SFTR needs – no matter how you choose to execute. Using either our Trade Order Management System (TOMS) or front office voice trading tools (VCON) our seamless trading workflow allows for simple execution and confirmation between borrowers and lenders, enabling an automated trade execution and reporting process. Our solutions enable you to:

• Generate a fully enriched record of all data fields required for SFTR, including critical fields such as Unique Trade Identifers (UTI), Timestamps, Economic and instrument reference data, and Static data fields.
• Solve for SFTR data capture and trade reporting using existing workflows in the front office.
• Leverage ‘one-way matching’ of trade data and eliminate costly data-matching errors.
• Automate manual workflows that require data entry across multiple platforms.
• Utilize an agnostic trade reporting system through Bloomberg’s Regulatory Reporting Hub (RHUB) that can connect to numerous third-party trade repositories.
