Global Inventory Management has become increasingly critical to both buy side and sell side firms transacting in collateralized business lines.
The paper and infographic by Martin Seagroatt and Gilbert Scherff maps out an architecture for a new more integrated, automated and industrialized collateral ecosytem.
The paper:
• Shows how at the firm level, Global Inventory Management acts as the central control function of this new paradigm, with a more integrated market infrastructure as the nervous system
• Proposes that the industry is moving from an environment of individual competing firms to extended value chains of networked organizations
• Demonstrates how centralization of data allows a holistic focus on deployment of scarce resources such as capital, balance sheet and liquidity
• Discusses future technology trends that will enable collateralized trading to become leaner and more efficient, while addressing systemic vulnerabilities through a more robust and flexible architecture
