Stream Options Watch

Stream Options Watch is a unique workflow STP process for option exercise/assignment and close outs enabling firms to accurately manage their operational risk, drastically reducing the risk of financial loss. It helps clearing brokers’ middle and back-offices solve issues never addressed before by the derivatives industry or the ISV community.


Options Watch is made of two distinct but complementary functionalities:

1 - Option Exercise/Abandonment automated workflow process which reduces the number and the cost of errors:

  • Uploading of positions and static data from SunGard’s Stream
  • Collecting customers’ requests using standard interfaces and channels
  • Systematically performing several sanity checks
  • Authorizing the exercise instructions to be sent to the exchange
  • Managing requests’ exceptions
  • Monitoring market notifications
  • Reporting back to internal teams and customers
  • Feeding the back-office system
  • Providing online direct access for final customers through Stream Instant Web

2 - Fully automated close-out process allowing firms to save time and labour costs:

  • Reconciling the open positions between the back-office and the exchanges
  • Automatically sending the close-out instructions to the exchanges
  • Properly managing the account types (Net/Gross)
