analysis and optimum allocation of collateral.

adhere to and COLLINE is constantly being enhanced to meet both market and regulatory requirements,” commented John Wisbey, Chief Executive Officer, Lombard Risk. “Thanks to the experience of our dedicated collateral team and the detailed insight provided by our clients we aim to ensure that COLLINE remains the system-of-choice for firms to manage all aspects of their collateral efficiently.”
