Collateral Management Services
There are two types of margins required in OTC derivatives trades: initial margin (IM) to cover losses in the event of default of a counterparty and the variation margin (VM) that is requested based on daily changes in the market.
We provide "IM Collateral Management Services" and "VM Collateral Management Services" for initial margin (IM) and variation margin (VM), through which we handle everything from margin calculation to settlement on behalf of our customers.
Moreover, because the asset preservation through the use of trusts, etc. is obligatory for initial margin, we provide "IM Segregated Management Trust", a trust product for preservation.
