Lifecycle Management

Novations

Controlled transfer of contractual rights and obligations.

Our Novations workflow facilitates the transfer of contractual rights and obligations between counterparties while preserving the integrity of the original trade. It ensures that all changes in party relationships are processed in a controlled, standardised manner, maintaining a consistent trade state and complete audit history throughout the lifecycle.

Manual Updates Create Complications

Novations involve complex coordination between multiple parties and systems, often requiring manual updates across records. This creates operational delays, increases the risk of inconsistent trade states, and complicates audit and reporting processes. Without a unified approach, firms face challenges in maintaining accuracy and transparency during counterparty transitions.

 

Value Delivered:

  • Enables controlled and accurate transfer of contractual rights between parties, preserving trade integrity.
  • Ensures all systems reflect the updated counterparty structure, removing inconsistencies after novation.
  • Maintains a complete and traceable audit trail of ownership changes and lifecycle events.

FAQs

The primary benefit is the preservation of trade integrity. Unlike manual processes—which are prone to operational delays and inconsistent records—this workflow ensures that the transfer of rights and obligations between counterparties is standardised. It maintains a single, consistent trade state across all systems, ensuring that no data is lost or misaligned during the transition.

Novations require precise timing and communication between the transferor, transferee, and the remaining party. Our workflow replaces manual record updates with a unified approach. By automating the coordination between multiple systems, it removes the risk of “broken” trade states and ensures that the updated counterparty structure is reflected accurately across your entire infrastructure simultaneously.

Yes. One of the core values of our workflow is the maintenance of a complete and traceable audit trail. The system captures the full history of ownership changes and lifecycle events. This ensures that even after a counterparty transition, you have full transparency for reporting and audit purposes, showing exactly how the rights and obligations shifted from the original state.
