By providing an interface between counter party, depository and central bank, Polaris’ QCMS improves collateral mobilization efficiency, simplifies liquidity management and reduces back office complexity.

The platform encompasses complete security eligibility controls, multi-dimensional collateral management, collateral pool accounts to maintain the securities of multiple currencies held in multiple depositories, and real-time re-assessment of the pool and generation of margin call and security release.

The QCMS system also improves the liquidity in the system, trims cost, time and minimizes errors, claims Polaris.
