Following the calculation of collateral requirements, BNY Mellon will report them to the APs on a daily basis, removing the earlier process of notifying them through a manual process
Rex Wong, managing director at BNY Mellon’s Asia Asset Servicing business said that ETF providers in Asia-Pacific typically manage cash collateral in-house, and the process tends to be manual.
"Through our new automated capability we are now able to provide an efficient and risk-controlled process which is important to ensure a timely settlement of the ETF creation and redemption transactions with the Aps," added Wong.
APs are also provided with an option of delivering a basket of securities or cash collateral to an ETF servicer while creating new ETF fund shares.
