Transforming software delivery with SaaS

Legacy collateral management systems create risk with their long and cumbersome, high impact software releases.

Learn how modern, cloud-based platforms like CloudMargin are changing the way collateral software is delivered through SaaS technology. Releases are fast, seamless and reliable, with new features and improvements available in real-time. SaaS isn’t just a tech upgrade, it’s a strategic transformation of collateral management.

In today's fast-moving, volatile market landscape, legacy collateral management systems just aren't keeping up.

Siloed and complex, these outdated tech stacks drive significantly higher operational and credit risk. Manual processes, fragmented data and large, complicated system updates are holding firms back.

In this Cloud Conversations series, our Technology experts take a closer look at the challenges legacy systems create, and how modern, cloud-based SaaS solutions deliver collateral resilience and efficiencies.

Learn why rethinking legacy tech stacks is a strategic imperative and how adopting an end-to-end automated solution like CloudMargin ensures a smarter, agile way forward.

The risk of legacy systems

Legacy collateral management systems slow teams down, increasing risk due to limited automation, siloed processes and poor scalability. Learn how modern platforms offer real-time updates through STP (straight-through-processing) and scalable optimised performance, freeing up teams to focus on high-value tasks including exception handling and risk management.

‍The power of a unified workflow

Jonny Dong highlights how a single workflow and data structure across all asset classes breaks down silos and boosts transparency. With real-time reporting and a centralised view of exposure, collateral and inventory, firms can make significantly faster, data-driven decisions, delivering accurate insights to stakeholders.

‍Why cloud technology matters

Clinton Elston explains how CloudMargin’s SaaS solution removes the burden of upgrades, security and scalability—allowing firms to focus on their core business. With a flexible microservices architecture, the platform adapts quickly to market and regulatory changes and scales instantly during periods of high demand—something legacy, on-premise systems simply can’t do.
