Business Description

Engaging in repapering projects - where large quantities of documentation need to be updated or changed in a homogenous way. Here there is a premium to configuring the documentation and process up front, using workflow and document automation to make the process is simplistic as possible.

The Pitch: There will be a huge amount of repapering required as a result of Mandatory Clearing and ESMA initiatives. Inhouse can’t do it - it will require overflow. Getting a business which understands not only the market practice and legal subtleties, but also how to project manage, scale and apply technology to solve the volume problem, should be well placed.
