Brokerage and Clearing Firms

CRISIL is a key strategic partner to many of the world’s biggest brokerage and clearing firms.

Brokerage and clearing firm risk controls are tested constantly by market events and changing regulatory requirements. In 2020, clearing houses faced a daunting challenge from a spike in clearing volumes and a surge in initial and variation margin calls triggered by the pandemic. That crisis erupted just a decade after regulatory reforms passed in the wake of the Global Financial Crisis forced brokerage and clearing firms into a wholesale revamp of their risk management frameworks. 

As these essential financial institutions adjust to evolving rules and market conditions, many rely on CRISIL to enhance and update risk management practices.

CRISIL’s team of risk specialists helps clients effectively assess, monitor and mitigate counterparty credit risks and operational and enterprise risks. We provide expertise and experience across risks and research services, including credit assessment and monitoring, credit risk modelling, model risk life cycle management, system transformation and rationalisation, investment research, financial crime and technology risk management.

These capabilities are grounded in a deep understanding of global and regional regulations that allows us to provide customized support and solutions to brokerage and clearing firms around the world.
