Global Network
JAKARTA, Indonesia, July 19, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia/ --
Mandiri Sekuritas, a leading investment bank in Indonesia and a
subsidiary of one of the biggest Indonesian banks, Bank Mandiri,
has gone live with SunGard's Valdi( http://sungard.pr-optout.com/Url.aspx?514340x1190203x-1656111 )
and SunGard Global Network( http://sungard.pr-optout.com/Url.aspx?514340x1190202x-467088 )
(SGN) solutions to offer direct market access (DMA) to the
Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). Global investors can access IDX by
sending orders to Mandiri Sekuritas via the FIX
protocol( http://sungard.pr-optout.com/Url.aspx?514340x1190201x-982608 )
or SGN's order routing network.
Mandiri Sekuritas is also using Valdi's real-time, pre-trade risk
management solution to help it comply with Indonesia's regulatory
requirements, which include trading limits based on the size of
each investor's deposit with the Indonesian clearing house. Valdi
stores that information for each of Mandiri's clients, tracks their
activity on IDX, and prevents them from trading once they reach
their limit.
Harry M. Supoyo, president director of Mandiri Sekuritas, said,
"SunGard's Valdi and SGN help Mandiri Sekuritas provide global
investors with reliable DMA to the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Only a
small group of Indonesian brokers can provide this service, helping
make Mandiri Securities more competitive. Valdi's risk controls
also help us comply with the stringent Indonesian regulatory
rules."
Nasser Khodri, managing director for SunGard's capital markets
business in Asia Pacific, said, "For international investors
attracted to Indonesia, a growing number of local brokers are
investing in DMA solutions to offer new investment opportunities.
SunGard's SGN and Valdi are helping Mandiri Sekuritas reach that
new audience and expand its business."
