System solutions

OMX offers standardized systems solutions for the clearing and settlement of securities as well as for handling the administration and custody. OMX’s CSD solutions currently support more than 15 markets worldwide with specific implementation and support agreements and the full strength of OMX’s financial markets expertise.

OMX’s systems are characterized by open interfaces, such as ISO15022 and FIX, and are designed to communicate with various trading, clearing, securities settlement and payments systems. The systems can handle a wide range of asset categories and corporate actions.

Clearing organizations and CSDs and the markets in which they operate are subject to constant change and development, which can trigger adaptations to business and IT solutions. OMX can help identify relevant developments as well as provide clear migration paths and the required tools to grow and successfully manage change. Our solutions put a premium on creating an efficient, stable environment for your business to progress, all with risk reduction, scalability, flexibility and ease of administration in mind.

Clearing can be carried out at end-client or member level, for general, direct as well as non-clearing members, and boosting efficiency for all participants.

The open architecture of OMX‘s solutions also facilitates linkage to other OMX products. This enables a CSD, for example, to take advantage of the specialized functionality necessary in the clearing of OTC contracts as well as exchange traded derivatives.
