EasyFocus

Predictive settlement matching prioritisation tool powered by AI

Statistics show that nearly 50% of settlement fails are due to a delay in the correction of erroneous instructions.  

EasyFocus, our predictive settlement matching tool enabled by AI, helps you identify unmatched pending instructions and allegements that require your most urgent attention. By effectively prioritising your investigation efforts, you can reduce critical settlement fails, improve settlement efficiency and minimise CSDR settlement fails penalty. 

“It’s the first time we see real AI for post trade settlement: sophisticated, serious and valuable to help clients preventing fails and a concrete solution to CSDR Settlement Discipline."

“Awareness, identification and promptness EasyFocus provides will help us concentrate our efforts on real risk and identify trends with our counterparties.”

Reduce settlement fails, pre-empt CSDR penalties

Artificial intelligence

By leveraging AI, EasyFocus provides predictive insights into unmatched internal and bridge settlement instructions that carry the highest risk in terms of matching probability and CSDR penalty impact. You can therefore easily identify the most critical instructions that require corrective actions.

Operational efficiency

Save time and resources by using our plug-and-play solution to identify your unmatched instructions that matter the most.

EasyFocus, available via EasyWay, provides you with objective criteria that can be integrated into your own investigation process.
