System Overview

Deals are recorded using the minimum selections and keystrokes with context sensitive default input and dialogue boxes throughout. For frequently used deals templates or wizards can be set up with all default details pre-coded thereby requiring minimum input with high accuracy of details captured. Maturity dates and settlement amounts are automatically calculated with default pay/receive instructions and default journal entries automatically produced. A key feature is that the system will not allow a user to deal or settle on a non-trading day. As deals are confirmed they impact the real-time currency cashflow ladders immediately, reflecting the most up to date positions and exposures. The system has exhaustive error checking inherent.

On a daily basis the system advises on the deals maturing which require settlement. Full security and audit trail features ensure total integrity of the system. There is a powerful report generator (Crystal Reports and Crystal Info) that allows the user to tailor the reports of the system to the specific needs of the organization.

Foreign Exchange and interest rate exposures are monitored. Profit and loss accruals are calculated along with the FX gains/losses on deals. All instruments are marked to market in the revaluations. They can also be marked to budget and comparisons made. The system automatically produces the journal entries for the above re-measurements and gains/losses for export to a back-office accounting package.

The enquiry system is modeled on spreadsheet/ladder format. The user can define the rows for inflows and outflows through parameters and spreadsheet/ladders can be set up by dealer/desk/bank account/subsidiary account/subsidiary/currency etc. These sheets can be consolidated automatically at any sub level and overall by any criteria.

These sheets in turn can be summarised in as many sets as is required. The currency that these sheets are summarised in is totally user definable thereby giving on-line, real-time revaluations of positions.

The system automatically ties the deal-input process to the respective sheet/ladder cells thereby allowing the user to trade directly onto the online system. The inquiry can show the overall historical through to the most forward position held. This can be zoomed into on a daily basis or zoomed out to show weekly or monthly positions. The user can also place the cursor on a cell or position and the system will automatically show the deals/transactions that make up this amount. By further placing the cursor on a specific deal/transaction the original deal/transaction ticket is displayed. The deal/transaction may be viewed, amended or indeed cancelled subject to security authority.

All master files are user maintained and there is no limitation to the number of deals, currencies, sources, counterparties, subsidiaries, valuation rates/prices and sheets/ladders that the system caters for.

Standard import and export facilities allow the user to automatically link to their existing back office accounting/payment-receipt systems and to their existing desktop systems such as Lotus, Excel etc.

The system integrates fully with Microsoft Office for document production, E-mail, Scheduling and ODBC linking. By automating the accounting journal entries and by automating electronic payments the time and cost reduction in administration is considerable. All confirmation and settlement details are automatically produced and can be output to paper or file. If output to file these instructions can be telexed, faxed or electronically mailed to the relevant parties. Treasurer can interface to most modern Electronic Banking Systems now available from the various international banks. This feature allows automatic reconciliation and electronic interfacing for payment and receipt instructions. There is also an interface to SWIFT. The system is modular in design therefore any new or indeed specific variation in trading for a company can be catered for with the minimum modifications.
