MAINTAIN BOND

STATEMENT
OF WORKS (SOW)
Executive Summary

The fixed income securities project objective is to reduce the operational


risk around processing and maintaining corporate and guaranteed bond
structures. Currently there isn’t an automated solution for capturing
fixed income securities and managing the trade throughout the entire
lifecycle. The current process relies on manually capturing trade details
on spread sheets with no integration to run advance analytics and risk
management valuations. Furthermore, bond positions, coupon pay-
ments, accruals and MTM valuations are manually booked within the cor-
the management of the
porate EPR software. The main deliverable is to procure a state-of-the-art
treasury management Solutions (TMS) to streamline the management of
the entitie(s) Bond portfolio, introducing key controls, auditability and
governance and remove the reliance on Microsoft desktop applications.
This will enhance the entitie(s) straight through processing (STP) capa-
bility and reduce the risk of human error when processing treasury debt
instruments.
