Introduction
Beginning of 2011 UBS proactively reached out to SWIFT in order to get a new MT message type
created which will facilitate an automated netting solution. Based on this initial request from UBS,
SWIFT introduced a new working group in order to discuss the structure and the content of such a
new MT message type. Within several session lead by SWIFT this new MT message type was further
specified and finally signed off by all participants. The country voting which took place end of 2011
received a positive result since the majority of the countries agreed that SWIFT shall go ahead and
get this new MT message type implemented in the FX Market by November 2012. It is part of the 3er
series, more specific a MT370 and named as “Netting Position Advise Message”.
This MT370 will be exchanged between UBS and its trade parties, similar to a MT300 FX
confirmation, but it is only used to confirm netting cash flows. Upon a proper matching of this
MT370 with the incoming client’s MT370, the associated netting cash flow will be automatically
released from the netting engine without any user interventions.
1.1.
Business Background
The netting process as such is the most extensive task/activity within our settlement department
and is known to be one of the biggest capacity utilizer within FXMM Operations. Overall across the
globe UBS has 16 netting FTE’s which are purely allocated to netting tasks. The potential capacity
increase by implementing a fully automated netting solution has therefore become a key driver for
this project.

MT370 – AMENDMENT
1. MT370 Netting Position Advise Message to be sent to client indicating the same fields and
associated values as in the example for a MT370 NEW.
2. Client to send his MT370 in favor of UBS AG
3. Based on the amount mismatch on the netting cash flow both parties are obliged to
undertake the necessary operational steps to work out the underlying issue resulting in the
amount mismatch.
4. Whoever is incorrect is due to send an amended MT370. In the above scenario our client had
to amend his M370 from THB 4500 to THB 5000.
On a high-level the process is currently thought to be similar to the existing MBP process, but on an
NETT cash flow level, rather than on an individual trade level.

MT370 – Release Time Model
The industry agreed to have a multilateral release time model to which each bank will adhere
to. This will ensure that all netting clients will exchange their MT370 at the same time for a
specific currency. By that the industry wants to eliminate the potential timing issues where
Party A and Party B do not have the same amount of trades booked, hence the possibility to
be able to match the netting cash flows will be much higher if all will use the same timings.
Nevertheless within UBS we will be provided with the flexibility via DMG to also set up
bilateral release times. This will be required once we will have other client segments, asset
managers and corporates, onboarded for this new automated netting process, which have
tighter payment cut off times compared to banks.
The DMG set up for multilateral and bilateral release times will be explained later in this
SOP.

4. This example shows a separate HKD release time for this specific client. The
behaviour is that if any currency will be added in the bilateral release time table then
the multilateral release time will become invalid. In this example this client is set up
for multilateral release times except for HKD!

Instrument Class and Instrument Type. Also please note that in order to enable a client for
MT370 usage he must have a CPNET SSI record for the same Instrument Class and
Instrument Type.

CSE – Netting Confirmations
In CSE we have established separate work item management queues specifically for MT370
messages. The structure of these queues is available in the below print screen from CSE.
The various queues and their purpose are exactly the same as for our MT300 messages.
Below overview shows a MT370 message with its structure and all relevant fields that are
required in order to confirm a netting cash flow between Party A and Party B. The various
fields are highlighted to indicate which matching field with a potential discrepancy will lead to
what exception within the CSE work item management screen.

NetHandleCounterPartyException: this exception queue will show a MT370 mismatch in
case there is a discrepancy with regards to Party A vs. Party B information on the messages.
You will need to investigate if the counterparty we allocated the trades to is correct and
appropriate.
NetHandleDateException: this exception queue will show a MT370 mismatch in case there
is a discrepancy with regards to the value date on the messages between Party A and Party
B. Ideally this exception should not happen to often, unless our client or we as UBS send out
a MT370 for an incorrect value date by mistake.
NetHandleAmountException: this exception queue will show a MT370 mismatch in case
there is a discrepancy with regards to the amount and currency to be netted between Party A
and Party B. This exception will appear in case we or the client has more or less trades
included in his netting position and by that causing a MT370 to be sent with a different
amount to be netted.
NetHandleReversalException: this exception queue will show a MT370 mismatch in case
there is a discrepancy with regards to the direction of the netting amount (buy/sell).
NetHandlePIException: this exception queue will show a MT370 mismatch in case there is
a discrepancy with regards to the payment instructions provided in the messages by Party A
and Party B. The exception can be resolved by amending our SSI in the Netting Engine and
generated a MT370AMND as per the instructions received by the client’s MT370.

Use Case Scenarios
New actions/feature available in Netting Engine for clients that are enabled to exchange
MT370:
Value in the drop down menu
Action triggered by selected value
SEND
This action will “LOCK” the associated nett cash flow and
send a MT370 NEW in favour of the client
This action will “UNLOCK” the associated nett cash flow
again and subsequently send out a MT370 CAN
referencing back to the initial MT370 NEW that was sent
out in favour of the client
This will “FINISH” the associated nett cash flow and
release it from the netting engine by either generating a
payment order or receipt order
This action will allow you to resend a MT370. It will only
become available after a first MT370 got sent out to the
client.
Also RESEND action will be required after blocking net
cash flows in the netting engine in order to trigger an
MT370AMND.
This action will only become available once the
associated nett cash flow is in a “LOCK” status and will
provide the user to re-aggregate a new incoming cash
flow in the same currency with the one that is already in a
“LOCK” status. As a result a MT370 AMEND will be sent
out to the client with the new aggregated amount.

6. Ideally the user does not need to select anything from the action drop down menu as
each nett cash flow will be put into a LOCK status based on the currency’s associated
release time being set up in DMG either under the multilateral release time or bilateral
release time table. This set up is shown on the previous pages in this document
(DMG Setups). If the user would still want to generate and send a MT370 before an
upcoming currency release time, then he can of course trigger it manually as outlined
in the next steps 7 and 8.
7. The user has the choice to leverage the action drop down menu on the top which will
be used to perform bulk updates
8. If the user does not want to perform a bulk update, instead perform an individual
generation of a MT370 for a specific currency only, then the user needs to select the
send function from the associated action drop down menu for the respective nett cash
flow.

9. By selecting the action item “SEND” WEBTICS will generate and send a MT370 in
favour of the client. At the same time the associated nett cash flow will be moved into
a “LOCK” status to prevent new nett cash flows being included into the same netting
sequence. The notification field will be updated with “MT370” since this is the type of
notification sent out to our netting client.
10. If you click on “LIST” on the very right hand side you will be able to see the MT370
that was generated and sent out in the background.

12. The above MT370 will now be available in CSE in order to be matched against the
incoming client’s MT370. Based on the positive feedback coming back from CSE into
WEBTICS Netting Engine, the respective nett cash flow will automatically be
released. Also the matching update from CSE will be shown on the right hand side

Use Case Scenario 2 – MT370 Amendment
1. Please follow step 1 to 9 from the “Sunny Day” scenario
2. Now the situation will have changed since we are not able to match against the
incoming client MT370. This could be due to various reasons. The main reason is a
timing issue. The client might have an additional trade included in his nett cash flow
which UBS has not yet received. Typically this would result in a
“NetHandleAmountException” within CSE. In order to fix this specific exception the
user will need to check if UBS has in the meantime also received an additional nett
cash flow. If no, then the best is to check the underlying MT300 confirmation for this
specific client and to see if there are any CP-One-Sided-Exceptions existing. If yes,
then go back to the netting engine. The user will be prompted with the following
situation in the netting engine.
The “RECALC” function in the action drop down menu will allow the user to re-aggregate
the new nett cash flows still in an “OPEN” status with the one that has previously already
been “LOCK” and trigger an MT370AMND that will be referenced back to the original
MT370NEW message.

3. Go to the impacted nett cash flow. Select the “RECALC” function from the action drop
down menu and click on “SUBMIT”. Based on this action WEBTICS netting engine
will re-aggregate the two EUR nett cash flows into a single EUR nett cash flow. Also
in the background a MT370AMND will be sent out to the client.
4. If the user clicks on the hyperlink “LIST” he will be prompted with the following screen.
The first line item shows the original MT370NEW and the second line item is the
MT370AMND.

5. The original MT370NEW will now be replaced in CSE with the MT370AMND
referencing back to the original MT370NEW. This is exactly the same behaviour as
for our MT300. Ideally the amended MT370 should now be possible to be matched
against the client’s MT370 that was sitting in the “NetHandleAmountException” queue
in CSE. Based on the positive matching in CSE, CSE will send the matching update
back into WEBTICS netting engine and put the respective nett cash flow into a
“FINISH” status.

3. First nett cash flow to receive USD 100’000.00 has been moved into a “LOCK” status,
hence a MT370 was generated in the background to. By now we have received a
new USD nett cash flow as a receipt of USD 300’000.00. The user has now three
options:
a. Send a second MT370 to confirm the additional receipt of USD 300’000.00
b. Amend the original MT370 and re-aggregate both receipts of USD 100’000.00
and USD 300’000.00 into a single cash flow by using the “RECALC” function
c. Cancel the original MT370 to confirm a receipt of USD 100’000.00 and send a
new MT370 to confirm the receipt of USD 400’000.00 by using the “UNLOCK”
function on the “LOCK” cash flow

4. Option a) and c) will basically result in the same actions to be chosen by the user
within the action drop down menu. If the user did send a second MT370 to confirm
the additional receipt of USD 300’000.00 in a separate MT370, then the following
result would be shown in WEBTICS netting engine.
As a result, CSE would show to the user two MT370 in the Host-One-Sided Queue, once
confirming the receipt of USD 100’000.00 and once the receipt of USD 300’000.00. In order
to be able to match against the incoming client MT370 confirming a payable of USD
400’000.00 the user needs to go back to WEBTICS netting engine and perform a “UNLOCK”
on both USD cash flows as shown on below print screen.

5. Due to the user selecting the “UNLOCK” action from the drop down menu, both USD
nett cash flows will be changed into an “OPEN” nett cash flow status. Based on this
action WEBTICS netting engine automatically re-aggregates the two USD nett cash
flow into a single nett cash flow of USD 400’000.00 to be received.
As a result of the selected action by the user, WEBTICS netting engine will have generated
two MT370 cancelations, one for the MT370 that initially tried to confirm a receipt of USD
300’000.00 and one for the MT370 that initially tried to confirm a receipt of USD 100’000.00.
Line item 1  original MT370 to confirm a receipt of USD 100’000.00
Line item 2  original MT370 to confirm a receipt of USD 300’000.00
Line item 3  cancelation of original MT370 to confirm a receipt of USD 100’000.00
Line item 4  cancelation of original MT370 to confirm a receipt of USD 300’000.00
Line item 5  new MT370 to confirm the receipt of the re-aggregated nett cash flow to be
USD 400’000.00

6. In order to generate a new MT370 to confirm the re-aggregated USD receipt to be
400’000.00 the user will need to manually send a MT370 by using the “SEND”
function in the action drop down menu.
7. The selection of the “SEND” function by the user will generate the new MT370 to
confirm a receipt in USD of 400’000.00. This will also lead to a proper match in CSE
since the client’s MT370 sitting in the CP-One-Sided queue will now be able to be
matched with our newly generated MT370 confirming the same amount. Also the nett
cash flow will be moved into a “LOCK” status.

8. Based on the positive matching update coming back from CSE into WEBTICS netting
engine the associated nett cash flow will be moved into a “FINISH” status.
9. Netting sequence is now completed.
5.4.
Use Case Scenario 4 – PI Amendment for MT370
Overall the process up to the point where the SSI will be amended is already outlined in the
first use case scenario from step 1 to 9. The situation where the user would need to change
the PI’s on a specific nett cash flow is only if there are either no SSI existing, hence our
MT370 would not indicate the client’s SSI or we are dealing with a “NetHandlePIException” in
CSE where our MT370 is in an unmatched status due to the difference in the PI provided by
the client.
1. If the user needs to change the SSI to NSSI or NOST or there where no SSI available
at all and hence the user will need to code them manually then please click on the
relevant “NSSI” or “NOST” attribute under the “Choose PI” action drop down menu.
2. The user will then be prompted with the below payment screen in the netting engine.
Also as mentioned on the top of the screen, once the user will save the PI adjustment
WEBTICS netting engine will automatically send out a MT370 amendment indicating
the respective PI change undertaken by the user.

3. After the user submits the PI changes the user will then be able to click on the
hyperlink “LIST” on the right hand side in the “Host Reference” column which will
show the original MT370 NEW and the MT370 amendment.
4. The PI change is now completed and the netting sequence will be finalized based on
the positive matching in CSE with the new PI attached on the MT370AMND.
5. Once the netting sequence gets finished from Netting Engine based on positive
matching from CSE – the Non-standard payment (NSSI/NOST) will then stop in HAR
queue – which further needs to be checked and verified by a second user due to the
required 4-eye principle.

Use Case Scenario 5 – MT370 Resend
1. The user will be able to resend a MT370 at any time. Of course it will require that the
associated netting cash flow already sent a MT370 previously to our netting client.
The resending of a previously sent MT370 will purely reprint the original MT370 and
reference back to the original MT370.
5.6.
Use Case Scenario 6 – Block of net cash flow
Overall the process up to the point where a one or multiple nett cash flows are to be blocked
is already outlined in the first use case scenario from step 1 to 9. The situation where the
user would need to block specific nett cash flows is only required if there is an amount
mismatch in CSE. Such an amount mismatch can be fixed by blocking out all the cash flows
which the client does not yet have available in his netting engine.
1. Since the original MT370 has been sent out and the nett cash flows are in a LOCK
status as shown below, then you can click on the currency hyperlink on the very left
hand side.

4. Back on the overall netting screen you will now be able to notice that the overall
netting amount in CHF has changed based on the blocked cash flows in the
background.
5. In order to now generate an MT370 amendment to our client indicating the
adjustment of our netting cash flow in CHF you will need to perform a “RESEND”
action via the available action drop down menu.
6. After the resend has been performed you can check regarding your amended MT370
by clicking on the LIST hyperlink.

7. This will bring up a new window indicating a second MT370 which is the amendment
that was sent out to our client by selecting the “RESEND” action under step 5. As you
can see the CHF amount has changed based on the action taken in step 3.
8. The nett cash flow blocking is now completed and the netting sequence will be
finalized based on the positive matching in CSE. This can now be easily achieved
based on the new amount on our amended MT370 that should now reflect the same
CHF cash flow as the one on the incoming client MT370

Risk Cockpit
The netting sequences for all our netting clients are also available in Risk Cockpit. This is not
going to change with regards to clients that are enabled for MT370 swift netting automation.
The only difference is that the clients which are MT370 enabled will disappear from the RC
Net Proposal screen as soon as the underlying MT370 for the respective net cash flow will
be generated and sent to the client. This means that once the net sequence has been moved
into a “LOCK” status in WEBTICS the associated netting sequence in Risk Cockpit will
disappear.

Appendix
7.1.
Important Information – Day 2 work for MT370
1. Currently, if Recalc selected and the revised NET direction will change from PAY to
REC or REC to PAY – this involves deleting the attached PI to NET and adding a
new PI to match the direction. The current design in the netting engine deletes all the
references when the NET PI record is deleted. Hence we do not have previous
reference of MT370 Message. As a result a MT370 new message is created instead
of Amend message. Also original MT370 is not shown in the summary list screen.
2. In the event of a netting cash flow being blocked in the netting engine then the
“UNLOCK” is not possible. An error message will pop up indicating that there are still
cash flows in a BLOCK status and as a consequence those must be unblocked
before you can unlock the entire netting cash flow. As a matter of fact no cancel
message for the previously sent MT370 will be generated.
3. Cancel/Rebook of netting transactions already in a FINISHED status will not be
possible to be handled via proper MT370 process design. Impacted netting
sequences with Cancel/Rebooks after final confirmation has happened will need to be
managed via the existing functions with delta recall or full recall.
4. The split function for netting cash flows is not available for clients enabled for MT370.
5. Credit officer approvals for second netting: The system will not trigger MT370 for
second nett for that currency for that particular value date, the user has to manually
send the MT370 for second nett and after confirming the figure, the user should take
credit approval in CRMgross chat channel and then process the netting sequence
accordingly based on credit officer's approval/advise.
6. Trade gross functionality: When we have a single deal in Netting after one netting
sequence is done / or some times clients request to settle trades gross after one
netting is finished - in such cases user need to select the option "TRADE GROSS"
and process the trade out of netting, so that auto credit check is done by the system
itself - all credit denied (nacked) trades will stop in priority queue for which the user
need to take necessary action based on credit's approval.
