Misys CMS File Transfer Service (FTS) is a secure and transparent means of moving files and messages between Misys and our clients, enabling straight through processing. FTS automatically picks up and sends files from the client to Misys CMS, who translates the files as necessary to match trade data, and then returns a matched message status back to the client's processing system automatically for updating and payment.

This feature allows fund managers to send messages to custodian banks as an advice of / instruction to settle a third-party foreign exchange deal.

Standing settlement instructions (SSI)

Use SSI to create and maintain correct, consistent and concise settlement instructions, which can be shared between counterparties and other interested parties. You can easily enter custodian instructions to link with managed funds, and notification is a breeze with a built-in change notification system.

The quicker the confirmation: the more efficient your settlement process. This report helps you identify and correct errors quickly to reduce your costs.
