Set integration Finastra Deal matching

Created by Erik Åkerlund, Modified on Fri, 20 Sep at 11:21 AM by Pontus Klämfeldt

It is possible to send FX deals and short-term loans to Finastra for automatic matching. TS will receive the information if the deal has been matched in Finastra and TS will then update the deal's matching status to "Matched" and the deal's status to "Confirmed". 

This integration can replace the back office function to check that the deals are correct and manually confirm them.

A meeting with Finastra needs to be set up to finalise this set up. Our integration is using the Finastra API.


Note! Prerequisites for Loans

No amortisations
Fixed interest
First Payment roll date = End date


URL and API credentials  is needed from Finastra to finalise the integration set up.
