NEW YORK, LONDON and HONG KONG, Sept. 18, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hazeltree, the leading provider of integrated buy-side treasury management solutions, is pleased to announce that GoldenTree Asset Management (“GoldenTree”) has successfully implemented Hazeltree Collateral Manager™ to manage daily collateral calls while reducing capital usage, minimizing counterparty exposure, and increasing operational efficiencies. Hazeltree Collateral Manager provides GoldenTree with a comprehensive view of derivative positions with counterparties, as well as robust analytics and collateral automation algorithms to effectively manage collateral positions and address margin call discrepancies.

- Centrally manage counterparty agreements to minimize operational headaches;
- Compare and reconcile internal, independently calculated OTC collateral call estimates against each counterparty’s calculated calls to manage and reduce capital required to support derivative positions;
- Seamlessly respond to, issue, or dispute daily margin calls through eligible cash and non-cash assets to streamline the collateral management process; and,
- Automate posting of collateral within pre-defined threshold limits focusing the team to manage exceptions.
“Our portfolio finance team has been focused on efficiency and investors’ needs,” said Dan Rosensweig, Head of Operations at GoldenTree. “Hazeltree has proven to be a reliable and innovative treasury management partner to support our collateral process, as we continue our growth.”
