In today's globalized financial markets, post-trade management has become a critical function for institutional investors and financial institutions. Global post-trade processes involve the activities that occur after a trade is executed, ensuring that transactions are settled accurately and efficiently across multiple markets and jurisdictions.

What is Global Post Trade Management?

Global post-trade management refers to the processes and systems used to manage trade settlements, reporting, and asset movements after a trade has been executed. Key components include:

• Trade Matching and Affirmation: Ensuring the trade details are correct between buyers and sellers.

• Settlement: The actual transfer of securities and funds between the parties involved.

• Regulatory Reporting: Complying with various regulatory requirements across different regions.
