Status quo and objectives

Corporates have been required to report their OTC derivatives since 12 February 2014. Numerous providers offer technical solutions for this – but these alone are not the answer. Complying with its reporting obligations in cooperation with an experienced and flexible partner was a key decision-making criterion for Gentherm. The goal was for reporting trades to be possible for users in just three steps: Capturing a trade, creating the reporting file and uploading this to the trade repository.

TIP implementation

After specialist consulting inputs regarding typical field entries and calculation options for the various asset classes, the project entailed the configuration of a system with simplified user interfaces (unnecessary fields are hidden, background information relevant to the fields is displayed). The capturing of trades is possible both manually and via interfaces. The current reporting status of trades and the confirmations from the trade repository are always visible in TIP itself in the form of an overview page.

Outputs

Simple and logical user interfaces with predefined and calculated fields.
An overview of the reporting status of trades.
Messages are displayed in the event of incorrect entries and when received from the trade repository.
Options of manually capturing data and using interfaces.

„Despite many unknown variables we managed to implement partially automated reporting in a short period of time. We are always promptly informed about our options in response to changes relating to regulations and the trade repository.“
