Financial indicators

Clearing, settlement and depositary services
Indeval is the Mexican Central Securities Depository (CSD) for all financial instruments, which manages DALI Securities Settlement System (SSS), whose operational core is a trade settlement engine working on the basis of Trade Research methods.
DALI’s operational core is the only tool enabling transactions to be cleared and settled at Indeval on a final and irrevocable basis, and allowing for different applicable securities settlement DvP models, including real-time gross settlement (RTGS). As for August 10th, 2012, DALI started to administrate the communication with payment SPEI of Banco de México and SIAC-BANXICO for all cash deposits and withdrawals systems domestic currency, to be applied on movements from settlement cycles of SLV, as well as for final settlement on closing day.
Additionally, the settlement engine DALI is based on trade research techniques, it is executed automatically (at present set up to run every two minutes or more often, if there is enough trading volume), and it provides safe and continuous operation, ensuring that transactions shall be settled on a final and irrevocable basis. This unique clearing and settlement engine includes a linear programming model selecting which pending trades may be settled with the available balances and positions held by DALI direct participants (depositors), thus maximizing the value of transactions to be settled. Thanks to this model, it is possible to settle many transactions which, as a result of insufficent provision of securities and/or cash, would remain pending settlement if they were processed one by one. Up to December 31, 2014, the amount settled was a 13% over 2013.
