[GOAL] Produce a final recommendation on whether to approve a bank-wide rollout of an automated margin call and collateral optimization platform (including targeted CSA amendments), balancing UMR regulatory readiness, risk reduction, operational resilience, and treasury funding/budget constraints.

[R0.1] Collateral Operations Lead (speak, public): To make an informed decision on the rollout, I need clarity on a few key areas. Can we discuss the regulatory timing and any expected impacts on the margin? Additionally, I want to understand any tight treasury constraints that might affect our implementation.
[R0.2] Market Risk & XVA Lead (speak, public): Regarding the regulatory timing, we are currently subject to UMR Phase 6 with an IM compliance deadline on September 1, 2026. This means we need to ensure that our changes align with these deadlines. Additionally, I can share our current average IM of $620 million, which we anticipate will optimize down by $48 million. We should also consider potential impacts on treasury constraints as we move forward. Do you have specific areas in treasury funding that you are particularly concerned about?
[R0.3] Treasury Funding Manager (speak, public): To address the treasury constraints, we have a program funding envelope of $1.60M capex and $0.45M opex per year. It's crucial that we ensure the initiative aligns with these financial parameters. Additionally, I need quantified stress-call signals and margin-impact signals to assess the overall liquidity strain. Are there any insights on these areas?

[R1.1] Collateral Operations Lead (speak, private to=Market Risk & XVA Lead,Treasury Funding Manager): I appreciate the insights on regulatory timing and funding constraints. Regarding the margin impacts, I can share that our average margin call volume is about 1,480 calls per month. However, I need to understand more about the expected margin-impact magnitude and any signs of concentrated counterparty exposures that might affect our strategy. Could you provide any details on those?
[R1.2] Market Risk & XVA Lead (speak, private to=Collateral Operations Lead,Treasury Funding Manager): In terms of margin impacts, I can provide insights into the stress liquidity add-on which indicates that a 2020-style shock would add approximately $95 million in VM calls over a 5-day horizon. Additionally, we need to assess if there have been any recent costly settlement breakdowns or ongoing liquidity limits that could distort our implementation choices. Can we gather data on those aspects?
[R1.3] Treasury Funding Manager (speak, public): To better assess the impacts on liquidity and execution risks, could we gather information on the operational volume baseline and any staffing strain that might affect our rollout decisions? This would help us understand the full scope of our funding capabilities.

[R2.1] Collateral Operations Lead (speak, public): Thank you both for the insights on margin impacts and treasury constraints. I will look into the recent costly settlement breakdowns and we should also consider the operational volume baseline as suggested. Let's reconvene once we have all the data to finalize our recommendations for the rollout.
