US-based Bank Picks SmartStream TLM Corporate Actions

An unspecified US-based banking institution has selected SmartStream Technologies’ Transaction Lifecycle Management (TLM) Corporate Actions solution to create a global utility for corporate actions processing.

According to the vendor, the bank is already an existing SmartStream TLM customer and will use TLM Corporate Actions for its global wealth management and institutional business units. At the same time the firm is expanding its use of TLM Reconciliations to replace existing solutions at the bank. The bank hopes to gain operational efficiencies by centralising its transaction processing across business units and benefiting from technology and process consolidation.

SmartStream’s business process management (BPM) solution, TLM Control, will be used for integrating messaging and communication from external systems and databases into TLM Reconciliations and TLM Corporate Actions, says the vendor.

Lou Longhi, managing director, Americas, SmartStream Technologies, says: “This deal highlights the close relationship we have built with this customer, listening to their business needs and objectives. We understood the issues they were facing and were likely to encounter over the next five years and demonstrated we had the solution to match those criteria.”
