The repapering exercise resulting from Benchmark Reform is not only unprecedented in scale but will also affect everyone differently.
We know it can’t all be done manually, but the multiplicity of systems, diversity of documentation and global implementation means you need the right balance of bespoke and cost-effective to solve this problem. This is where we can help.
BRYTER’s LIBOR Transition Platform is an integrated solution, using our no-code technology to help you deploy highly customisable low-cost automation into any LIBOR transition gaps you may have. No-code technology enables domain experts like you, who understand the context, to create made-to-fit automation products that can triage data, bulk generate documents, streamline negotiations and push structured data into operations systems. Not only can BRYTER be used as an end-to-end solution, but it can be plugged into any part of your process and work seamlessly with your tech stack.
This much flexibility with an intuitive UI is complex, but we have done the hard work for you. With our domain expertise in legal and financial services, we enable you to leverage BRYTER’s technology for IBOR with off-the-shelf modules to automate from Day 1. We then take you one step further. Doing the job itself is not enough today, knowing how you are doing in and if you could do it better is as important. Therefore, along the way, our case management toolkit and intuitive dashboard will guide you, help monitor your workflows, create audit trails and enable effective reporting, all completely customisable for your needs.
Background
With the discontinuation of IBOR from 2022 onwards, banks and other financial institutions are confronted with the challenge of reviewing, renegotiating and adjusting a huge number of documents containing contractual references to benchmarks, such as, LIBOR. While existing contract analysis software can be used for reviewing large document sets potentially affected by the LIBOR transition, the diversity and ambiguity of the language used in many legal documents presents challenges to an entirely unsupervised machine-driven process. As such, there is a need to curate, filter and refine the data from contract analysis software and often review the original documentation yourself. BRYTER no-code app builder can help you with this, using gentle nudges in our system to capture the right data (in the right way), enabling you to triage it and then proceed to document automation and repapering in a repeatable, seamless flow.
We can then go a bit further, allowing you to automate the painful outreach process, creating negotiation playbook with our playbook software to limit or eliminate friction for agreeing amendments, and updating that “golden source” of data as it evolves in real-time. Our smart integrations can then take over to pipe this data back into bank systems for immediate operationalisation.
