Dramatic market growth in OTC derivatives and regulatory concerns have created a major need for the industry to achieve greater operational efficiency. In response to the industry need, MarkitSERV was formed by Markit and the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC).

MarkitSERV combines the flagship electronic trade confirmation, position reconciliation and related workflow platforms from its parent companies to provide a single gateway for OTC derivative transaction processing globally. MarkitSERV also connects dealers and their clients to central clearing counterparties (CCPs), trade repositories and third-party administrators. For more information, visit www.markitserv.com
