Deutsche Bank puts its collateral and margin management in a cloud server solution – first to do so among major global banks.

Cloudmargin is the name of the vendor that will serve the German finance giant with its new cloud-based platform for its global collateral management, according to an article by news site Global Custodian.

Less e-mails

”Moving our collateral and margin management onto an online platform means that we and our clients will enjoy a reduction in risk and resource-draining emails and calls,” says Joseph Macdonald, global head of collateral optimisation trading at Deutsche Bank, in the article.

Tackles risks
