Tri-party survey methodology

  • Export:
There is one overall raw data table, 17 service category tables and additionally three regional tables, one repo respondent table and one securities lending respondent table.

The tri-party survey is open to all tri-party clients. This year for the first time respondents have the option of ranking tri-party providers for collateral management, in addition to securities lending and repo as in previous years.

Overall table

Respondents are asked to rate their tri-party providers across a number of service categories, on a scale of seven to one, where seven is excellent and one is very poor. Tri-party providers require a minimum of 10 responses to qualify in the overall table.

You must also qualify in a minimum of two regions (see regional tables for criteria). Each respondent’s scores are averaged to give a final respondent score.

If a tri-party provider is rated multiple times by the same respondent firm in the same country the ratings will be averaged and will only count as a single response for the purposes of qualification.

Regional tables

Each of the regions requires a minimum number of responses. The respondent’s location is used when calculating the regional tables. 

  • Asia Pacific: minimum of five responses
  • Emea: minimum of 10 responses
  • Americas: minimum of 10 responses

Overall repo tri-party table: Each repo respondent’s scores are averaged to give a final respondent score. A minimum of five responses is required to qualify.

Overall securities lending tri-party table: Each securities lending respondent’s scores are averaged to give a final respondent score. A minimum of five responses is required to qualify.

Overall collateral management tri-party table: Each collateral management respondent’s scores are averaged to give a final respondent score. A minimum of five responses is required to qualify.

Service category tables

For each provider, all respondent scores in each service category are averaged to give a single score per service category. l Ability to create bespoke schedules
