    The trade settlement gets deleted if the agency does not confirm a trade.

    While authorizing trade settlement, the system checks if the trade is confirmed by the agency. If it is confirmed, trade settlement gets authorized. If it is not confirmed or if it is rejected, the system forces you to obtain agency confirmation before proceeding with the authorization.

    On authorization of the trade settlement, the trade details are transferred to the agency which in turn initiates participant transfer events corresponding to the trade.

    Note:

    • If deletion or reversal of the trade settlement happens after agency confirmation, you need to reconfirm the trade before the actual trade settlement.
    • Agency confirmation is not required for inter company deals which are not being handed off to agency.
