Boston, June 5, 2019 – The onset of UMR has created an industry need for better management of initial margin. In a space that was once dominated by a single provider, competition and innovation have led to a breakup of the monopoly and the expansion of solutions. As the industry prepares for the next phase of the rules, third-party solutions providers are creating more ways to compress previously uncompressible portions of the market.
This report discusses the challenges and potential solutions affecting both buy-side and sell-side firms across asset classes, and it profiles Capitalab (a division of BGC Brokers L.P.), CME Group Inc., LMRKTS, Quantile Technologies Limited, Synswap, and TriOptima AB. The report is based on Aite Group’s interviews of over 25 global financial markets participants to obtain information about the challenges and solutions around UMR, and on statistical data that was obtained from Clarus Financial Technology, the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, and various CCPs.
