Global One will provide front-office trade input and management for its principal lending business with operational tasks for automated dividend and corporate action processing, settlement procedures, marks and full exposure, and collateral management.
Haitong International鈥檚 new stock lending business is now poised to handle much of the trade flow resulting from the growth of cross-border equity trading via the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect programme, according to SunGard.
鈥淲ith their large retail base providing a broad inventory or stock for lending purposes, the company plans to leverage its retail knowledge to drive stock lending at an institutional level,鈥� said SunGard in a statement.
Duke Du, managing director for equity derivatives at Haitong International, explained: 鈥淲e chose SunGard for this new business given the company鈥檚 proven track record with the Global One product and its knowledge in this industry. Adding to this, the Global One product was delivered on-time and on-budget which helped us manage the launch of the stock lending business at Haitong.鈥�
鈥淕lobal One will allow us to process lists of securities that a counterparty might require. Using Global One鈥檚 Lender Trading Grid, we can successfully check our inventory, assign a lending fee, and book multiple security loans in a short period of time. The Hong Kong market will appreciate the speed at which Haitong can process lending requests.鈥�
John Grimaldi, president of SunGard鈥檚 securities finance and processing group, added: 鈥淕lobal One continues to be the system of choice for many lenders and broker dealers in the global marketplace. We look forward to working with Haitong International Securities Group, as we continue to expand our securities finance footprint in the Asia Pacific and SunGard鈥檚 growing list of clients that use Global One as their core system for equity finance.鈥�
