How It Works

Four layers, one coherent ownership record

Multi-source ingestion

Connect to any custodian data feed: CSV exports, SWIFT messages, FIX protocol feeds, API endpoints, and proprietary custodian formats. OpenAssets parses and accepts them all without custom coding.

Normalization engine

Incoming ownership records are mapped to a single canonical schema. Asset identifiers, counterparty fields, and position quantities are standardized regardless of how each source formatted them.

Reconciliation logic

Position records from different sources are automatically matched against each other. Discrepancies are flagged with the two conflicting values, the source of each, and the time the divergence appeared.

Compliance output layer

Reconciled records are structured for regulatory reporting. Export packages pre-formatted for SEC 17a-4, GLBA data subject requests, and CFTC reporting are generated from the same canonical record.

The Data Model

Three-tier pipeline from raw feed to compliant record

Every ownership record moves through three distinct processing tiers. The model is designed so each tier produces a fully auditable output that serves as input to the next.

  • 1. Ingestion tier: raw ownership data arrives from multiple custodian feeds. Formats parsed, schemas detected, timestamps normalized to UTC.
  • 2. Normalization core: a single canonical ownership schema applies across all sources. Cross-source discrepancies are computed and surfaced as exceptions.
  • 3. Output tier: compliance reports, dashboard data, and API responses all read from the same reconciled canonical record. No downstream transformation required.

Integrations

Connects to the feeds you already have

No middleware required. OpenAssets reads the formats your custodians already send.

Custodian CSV and XLSX exports
SWIFT MT and MX message formats
FIX protocol position reports
REST and SOAP custodian APIs
DTCC and DTC position reports
Custom proprietary feed formats

Security and Data Handling

Institutional-grade security, not enterprise theater

We describe what we actually do, not certifications we plan to pursue.

Encryption at rest and in transit

All data stored with AES-256 encryption. All data in transit over TLS 1.3. Encryption keys are customer-scoped and rotated on a defined schedule.

Role-based access control

Every user action is scoped by role. Back-office staff see what their role allows. Compliance officers have read access to audit logs. Admin users control provisioning. No horizontal access by default.

Immutable audit trail

Every ownership event, reconciliation action, and exception resolution is written to an append-only log. No record can be edited or deleted after it is committed. Log entries carry timestamp, user ID, and action context.

Data residency options

Reconcile-tier and Institutional customers can specify data residency region. Ownership records remain in the agreed region and do not traverse to other infrastructure without explicit consent.
