Misys Broadens Confirmation Matching Service to Cover Full Metals Suite


LONDON, June 23 /PRNewswire/ --

- Post-trade Matching of Precious Metals Extended Across all Metal Trade
Transactions

Misys plc (FTSE: MSY.L), the global application software and services
company, today announces it has extended its Confirmation Matching Service to
cover the additional asset class of base metals within its Metals Suite. This
extended capability within Misys world-leading matching engine brings more
benefits to customers performing any metal trade.

SWIFT has recently expanded its MT600 series messages to incorporate base
as well as precious metals transactions. With this enhancement to the Misys
service, both bank and corporate users of Misys Confirmation Matching Service
Metals Suite are able to have all metal trade transactions automatically
matched via a single secure and reliable portal. This brings more visibility
and better control across the lifecycle of the metal trades.

"This step is the latest in a long line of market-led enhancements to the
service and will provide our customers even more value from our solution,"
comments Gil Bray, Solutions Director, Misys Confirmation Matching Service.
"We have more than 950 customers who all put their trust in our service for
confirmation, netting and settlement needs around the world. We are confident
that the extension of our metals capability to take in the whole Metals Suite
will bring even more value to them in terms of automation, enhanced
straight-through processing and more reporting flexibility. Ultimately, this
will make their businesses more efficient with faster processing and
settlement times, fewer errors, leading an increase in margins."

The increased automation which the new Metals Suite brings users will
lower risk and the flexibility within the treasury portal allows them to be
prepared for future volume changes while keeping costs to a minimum. Any MT
600 series messages that are generated by both counterparties in a trade are
automatically matched using the Metals Suite service from Misys. The result
is that customers can instantly see the matching results of all deals,
significantly reducing operational risk associated with manual processing.
