Systems

SCM has invested in technology and systems with foresight in relation to client needs. SCM has developed its own full service pricing system that puts its derivative pricing capabilities on par with the swap desks of major counterparty banks. This is coupled with live data feeds to provide market transparency, which ensures fair pricing because our models provide immediate recognition of changing market conditions. In addition, SCM has access to market research sources that allow us to analyze historical information related to market conditions and trends, and to perform comparison analyses that assist us in strategizing institutionally appropriate debt and derivative recommendations.
