How will you use the Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse?

While their mandate is to reduce risk, the fact that they have to act as both buyer and seller at the inception of a trade means that they are subject to default risk from both parties. The Clearing House launched the RTP® network in November 2017 to bring real-time payments to the U.S. Today the RTP network’s real-time payment capabilities are accessible to financial institutions that hold close to 90% of U.S. demand deposit accounts (DDAs), and the network currently reaches 65% of U.S. The RTP network was built for financial institutions of all sizes and serves as a platform for innovation allowing financial institutions to deliver new products and services to their customers. Financial Institutions can integrate into the RTP network directly, through Third-Party Service Providers, Bankers’ Banks and Corporate Credit Unions. To find more information on the RTP network and how to join the real-time payments revolution, visit our online library or contact us directly.

A clearing house is a financial institution formed to facilitate the exchange (i.e., clearance) of payments, securities, or derivatives transactions. The clearing house stands between two clearing firms (also known as member firms or participants). A broker is a person or entity through with customers can access the financial markets and place trades. The clearinghouse handles the back office operations after the trade is placed, ensuring the trade is cleared. A clearinghouse is a designated intermediary between a buyer and seller in a financial market. The clearinghouse validates and finalizes the transaction, ensuring that both the buyer and the seller honor their contractual obligations.

The clearing division acts as the middle man, helping facilitate the smooth transfer of the stock shares and the money.

In some systems, financial institutions may contract with one or more third parties to help perform clearing and settlement activities. Financial exchanges, such as commodities futures markets and stock exchanges, began to use clearing houses in the latter part of the 19th century. In 1874 the London Stock Exchange Clearing-House was established for the purpose of settling transactions in stock, the clearing being effected by balance sheets and tickets. The Consolidated Stock Exchange of New York used clearing houses from its inception in 1885. This exchange existed in competition with the NYSE from 1885 to 1926 and averaged 23% of NYSE volume. In order to act efficiently, a clearinghouse takes the opposite position of each trade, which greatly reduces the cost and risk of settling multiple transactions among multiple parties.

All Clearinghouse services facilitate compliance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), The Higher Education Act, and other applicable laws. The Clearinghouse also respects all participating institutions’ policies concerning the release of student data to third parties. Your students and alumni can order transcripts quickly and securely anytime, anywhere, and from any mobile device. Give students and alumni faster access to their transcripts with less work for you.

In this example, the clearinghouse has ensured that there is sufficient money in the account to cover any losses that the account holder may suffer in the trade. The initial margin can be viewed as a good faith assurance that the trader can afford to hold the trade until it is closed. These funds are held by the clearing firm but within the trader's account, and can't be used for other trades. The intention is to offset any losses the trader may experience in the transaction. Our insights help schools, outreach programs, and educational organizations support learners and set them on the path to greater success.
