The complexity of processing corporate actions on cross-border investments is well-documented, with the challenges of disparate information sources, multiple formats and ever-more intricate terms and conditions making life harder and harder for the corporate actions section of your back office.
If in the past you could weather the occasional loss or throw expensive skilled operators at the task, that's not an option now. It's imperative that you take advantage of standards, market practices and the latest technology solutions to eradicate the risks and costs from this notoriously difficult activity. Also corporate actions have an impact beyond the back office, influencing your front office trading strategies and being an important factor for your risk and compliance departments.
The annual CorpActions events in London present the perfect opportunity for you to gauge industry progress towards corporate actions STP, and to find out how your firm can further streamline its corporate actions processing by keeping up to speed with adoption of the tools and standards out there in the marketplace to help.
CorpActions brings together practitioners, industry bodies, data vendors and service providers to review the critical issues and developments within the corporate actions landscape. We look at the opportunities as well as the risks firms face in developing their global corporate actions STP strategies.
