Solution
Benefit from full support for your CLS business
CLS Manager provides comprehensive support for all your CLS business needs—whether settling FX, DTCCs, Cross Currency Swaps or ClearedFX through CLSSettlement or bilaterally netting FX and NDFs with CLSNet.
CLS Manager enables internal multi-lateral netting and settlement of FX, NDFs, OPRs and CASH products—across both CLS and non-CLS currencies—between a bank’s entities and customers and at multiple points throughout the business day.
CLS Manager clients also benefit from automatic support for CLS’s mandatory technical updates, including CLS Resilience and the latest CLS XML message sets.
Protect your reputation with reliability and control
With CLS Manager, automated reconciliation and payment processing for CLSSettlement and CLSNet ensures you meet your CLS payment commitments on time. A full audit trail is maintained, and users receive instant alerts for critical events, enabling fast and informed responses.
Further, automated funding and payment requests to third and fourth parties streamline operations, reduce manual errors and enhance transparency across your CLS activity.
Extend CLS benefits to your third-party customers
CLS Manager delivers the same powerful benefits to clients’ customers as it does to their own branches. Thanks to its flexible organizational hierarchy, you can easily onboard third- and fourth-party customers.
Once connected, these customers gain real-time visibility into their CLS activity, whether through the intuitive CLS Manager user interface or via the seamless delivery of data directly to their systems. In sum, your extended network benefits from the full capabilities of CLS Manager, efficiently, transparently and reliably.
Provide seamless user Interaction
CLS Manager’s browser-based interface offers fast, secure access for both bank and customer users worldwide. With clear screens and intuitive navigation, users get a straightforward, real-time view of key information and can easily drill down for deeper insights.
Role-based access and single sign-on (SSO) compatibility ensure robust security and data control.
Leverage trusted technology
Running on a reliable UNIX platform, CLS Manager uses leading databases and web servers. It connects to back-office systems via MQ messaging middleware and interfaces with CLS through SWIFT’s MI Channel.
CLS Manager supports a wide range of standard SWIFT message types, including full compatibility with SWIFT CBPR+, and the latest CLS XML message sets.
