Trade Settlement
AldrichEgg leverages its combined forty plus years of legal experience representing institutions in the high-yield trading markets to provide clients with seamless management of their syndicated loan, bankruptcy claim, and security trades. Our team understands the ins and outs of the high-yield markets and can either act as a completely outsourced trade settlement option or serve on an as-needed basis for overburdened in-house operations groups. We strive to close trades rapidly in accordance with applicable industry time standards (e.g., LSTA and LMA).
The following is a sampling of some of the functions our team can perform:
-
assist with trade booking on both client and third-party systems (e.g., ClearPar);
-
process necessary bank loan entries on client systems;
-
act as point person for KYC requests from counterparties;
-
assist with withholding tax issues;
-
discuss/negotiate issues with counterparties;
-
coordinate pending trades with outside counsel;
-
interface with traders, analysts, and accounting on trade-specific issues;
-
review transfer documentation and pricing;
-
arrange for client execution of transfer documentation; and
-
forward closing documentation to third-party systems and internal client operations teams.
