SMART/Track充当机构贷款披露的“邮局”, transmitting open loan data files between agent lenders and borrowers. 代理银行 and borrowers can connect to SMART/Track for 机构贷款披露 directly or via a vendor relationship. 非会员必须直接连接到SMART/Track.
代理银行 and borrowers using the same vendor technology platform – currently, SunGard or EquiLend – transmit information directly from one to another across the vendor’s platform. SMART/Track serves as a communications hub providing interoperability between counterparties for lenders and borrowers that are on different vendor platforms or are connecting directly to SMART/Track by routing the files to the appropriate counterparty.
SMART/Track reviews the header and trailer information on the files to ensure it can successfully deliver the files to the designated counterparty and to verify that the file contains the number of records indicated. Because it lacks the ability to read the data records contained in the files, SMART/Track不编辑或验证文件数据.
代理银行, borrowers or vendors can send files via DTC’s standard file transfer capabilities – Connect: Direct (formerly Network Data Mover or NDM) or File Transfer Protocol (FTP). Those agent lenders and borrowers that do not have connectivity to DTC can send files via the Internet using FTP.
SMART/Track每天晚上都会创建一个参与者资格文件. Participants can retrieve this file to see which firms are eligible for the service. SMART/Track rejects agency lending files to counterparties that do not subscribe to SMART/Track for 机构贷款披露.
将文件直接传输到SMART/Track
将贷款文件直接发送到SMART/Track, participants must establish connectivity to DTC if they do not already connect for other products and services. Connectivity is established through DTCC’s Participant Interface Planning group at (电子邮件保护).
通过供应商传输文件
Participants using a vendor must provide DTC with a third-party authorization letter so that DTC can set up the participant in SMART/Track with the appropriate vendor relationship.
