RQD* Clearing has announced a strategic partnership with Provable Markets’ Aurora ATS and its participation in DTCC’s National Securities Clearing Corporation (NSCC) Securities Financing Transaction (SFT) clearing service.
These collaborations enhance RQD Clearing’s capacity to offer efficient securities lending and borrowing services to its clients, leveraging NSCC’s robust clearing infrastructure, DTC’s settlement functionality and Aurora’s trading and lifecycle automation.
“RQD Clearing’s participation as a member in NSCC’s SFT clearing service will enable them to extend the benefits of central clearing to their clients,” said John Vinci, Managing Director and Head of Secured Funding and Collateral management.
