“CloudMargin has once again emerged top in the best buy-side collateral management tool category in the annual Buy-Side Technology Awards, its fifth win in the past six years in what has become a highly competitive category,” said Victor Anderson, global content director of WatersTechnology. “Key to the cloud-based platform’s success in this market is its outstanding multi-asset collateral and margin management functionality for cleared and non-cleared transactions, and its high-profile alliances with AcadiaSoft and IHS Markit, effectively endorsing the quality and accuracy of the CloudMargin collateral management framework.”
CloudMargin has become the only collateral and margin management solution adopted by the buy side, sell side and outsourcers to meet different challenges, including regulatory compliance and automation as well as access to critical market infrastructure and new technology. Through the firm’s strategic partnerships with AcadiaSoft and IHS Markit, CloudMargin now powers the collateral management solution for these major service providers.
In addition, the firm last month announced a new partnership with Finastra, one of the world’s largest fintechs, to provide Collateral Management as a Service, powered by CloudMargin and available through Finastra’s FusionFabric.cloud platform. In September, CloudMargin announced a $15 million Series B funding round in which Deutsche Bank, Citi and Deutsche Börse were the primary investors.
The Buy-Side Technology Awards recognise the market-leading technologies and third-party vendors in their area of expertise, through an auditable, transparent methodology underpinned by the input and experience this year of nine judges, including five buy-side-focused technology consultants and four of WatersTechnology’s most experienced journalists. Criteria for selection of winners included innovation and addressing the buy side’s most pressing business, regulatory, operational and technology needs, as well as collaboration, regulatory compliance and managing the various risks and challenges buy-side firms face on a daily basis, while also allowing them to maximise their operational efficiency.
