Value Chain Definition on the Financial System Infrastructure in Brazil.

The Financial System Infrastructure (FSI) in Brazil is a complex and interconnected ecosystem vital for the smooth functioning of the national economy. It encompasses the systems, institutions, rules, and procedures that facilitate financial transactions, enable capital formation, manage risk, and ensure the stability of the financial markets. Unlike a linear manufacturing process, the FSI's value chain is a network of interdependent activities that collectively create value by reducing costs, mitigating risks, and increasing efficiency and transparency in financial operations.

Value Chain outline

The value chain of the Financial System Infrastructure in Brazil can be delineated into several key stages, reflecting the lifecycle of financial transactions and the essential support functions that underpin them. These stages, while presented sequentially, often involve continuous interaction and feedback loops among participants:

  1. Origination and Structuring of Financial Instruments: The initial creation and design of financial assets and products.
  2. Trading and Execution: The platforms and mechanisms where financial instruments are exchanged between buyers and sellers.
  3. Clearing: The process of confirming, matching, and netting financial transactions prior to settlement.
  4. Settlement: The final and irrevocable transfer of assets and funds between parties to a transaction.
  5. Custody and Asset Servicing: The holding and administration of financial assets on behalf of owners.
  6. Registry: The official recording of the existence, ownership, and characteristics of financial assets.
  7. Payments Processing: The infrastructure and systems facilitating the movement of funds.
  8. Risk Management: The identification, measurement, monitoring, and mitigation of financial and operational risks within the system.
  9. Regulation and Supervision: The establishment and enforcement of rules and oversight to ensure stability, integrity, and fairness.
  10. Technology and Innovation: The development and application of technological solutions to enhance efficiency, security, and introduce new services.
