Baton Systems Partners with J.P. Morgan to Automate Collateral Optimisation

Subscribe to our newsletter

Post-trade specialist Baton Systems has collaborated with J.P. Morgan’s Collateral Services to automate the optimisation of collateral for tri-party clients globally. The integration of Baton’s Core-Collateral solution into J.P. Morgan’s CCP Margin Exchange (CCPMx) went live with its first CCP in November. Baton now plans to extend the solution across its network of 13 major CCPs, representing over 94% of cleared margin by U.S. FCMs.

The collaboration aims to address complexities in the derivatives markets by enabling clients to aggregate, select, and mobilise collateral effectively and rapidly through Baton’s platform. By automating these processes, the initiative promises to alleviate operational burdens, improve funding decisions, and reduce operational risk.
