Getting data posted by the Depository Trust Company (DTC), a subsidiary of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), on cleared certificates requires accessing DTCC's data services and systems as a participant or subscriber.
Methods and Resources for Accessing DTCC Data:
DTCC Data Services: DTCC offers a range of data services providing referential and activity-based data, sourced from its transaction, reference, position, and asset servicing data. This includes information on securities eligible for post-trade processing, including those held in book-entry-only form. You can explore the DTCC Data Services website for details on specific offerings.
Security Master File Data: This service provides comprehensive, up-to-date information on securities eligible for servicing at DTC or NSCC. It includes data on over 4 million securities across various asset classes.
Computer-to-Computer Facility (CCF): DTC's CCF allows participants to transmit data to and receive data from DTC's computer system. CCF-II offers a similar function for data exchange. Users need to prepare input files in the DTC-specified format and use the CCFUSER software to communicate with DTC.
Client Center: The DTCC Client Center is a portal providing access to DTCC products, services, support tools, and resources, including documents necessary for services like Financial Activity Reporting.
DTCC Learning Center: The DTCC Learning Center offers resources like user guides, file specifications, FAQs, and videos to help users maximize their use of DTCC Data Services. You may need to register for an account to access all content.
Viewing Called Certificates: You can view information on called certificates via the Corporate Action Service menu in the Announcements/Inquiries area, selecting "Reorg Inquiry for Participants" and then "Called Certificate". The Redemption Called Certificate Search page allows searching by CUSIP.
Data Extracts: You can request data extracts, such as ALERT data, via ServiceCentral. This involves logging in, selecting the relevant service, and specifying the type of data required.
Important Considerations:
Participation: Access to much of DTC's data requires being a participant in their services.
Login and Authentication: You may need to log in to the DTCC Portal or Learning Center using a DTCC Portal ID or email to access certain resources.
