OeKB will provide true end-to-end digitalization to its client segments in Austria via Montran’s next-generation solutions
OeKB CSD, the Austrian Central Securities Depository, and Montran, a leading provider of capital market software, announced the successfully completed implementation of the OeKB CSD Issuer Platform: a platform for the digital management of securities based on Montran’s core Central Securities Depository (CSD) solution. Both companies celebrated the successful launch with a go-live event in Vienna.
This is a major milestone in the digitalization of custody infrastructure on the Austrian Capital Market, enabled by the recent amendment to the national Depository Regulation. The new platform enables the digital issuance of securities as well as manages the entire lifecycle of securities in a single system. It supports full integration with customer systems to create seamless and paperless process. Customers can now benefit from end-to-end digitalization with an increased level of flexibility, speed, and convenience. Both, OeKB CSD and Montran, are convinced that this will enable a new dynamic for the Austrian Capital Market and will serve as a solid basis for further digitalization and growth.
