Pierpoint Financial Consulting has released the first of a three-part white paper series exploring operational efficiency in the securities finance industry.
The white paper ‘A journey through time: Building on the past’ covers the back story of the securities finance industry from the 1990s through to the present day.
Subsequent papers in the series will look further into the future of securities lending and explore additional problems facing the industry in light of new regulations.
The paper delves into the technological developments already in process to solve these industry-wide issues and reveal the strongest solution in the quest to bring true efficiency at scale to the industry.
John Arnesen, Pierpoint consulting lead, comments: “The success that securities finance has enjoyed in terms of growth, breadth of supply and revenue generated for all participants is impressive. The moving parts of a loan life-cycle, however, need more attention if the industry to meet the impact of future technology with any confidence.”
Roy Zimmerhansl, Pierpoint co-founder practice lead, adds: “A more efficient and cost-effective operating environment is essential to the growth of the industry going forward. A robust operational infrastructure can be a business differentiator today. Tomorrow it will be a prerequisite.”
