Collateral Management

Overview

Collateral management in timveroOS provides comprehensive functionality for defining, tracking, and monitoring secured assets throughout the loan lifecycle. The system enables configuration of various collateral types, automated valuation processes, and risk-based monitoring to ensure adequate loan security.

Business Context

timveroOS offers a complete solution for collateral management, allowing financial institutions to:

  • Add collateral requirements to products and additives

  • Track collateral throughout the loan lifecycle

  • Monitor values and coverage ratios

  • Automate documentation requirements

  • Ensure regulatory compliance

Asset Configuration

Asset Types

Similar to participant customization, assets (collateral) can be configured in the SDK to match institutional requirements. Once configured, these assets become available for:

  • Product configuration

  • Additive requirements

  • Workflow integration

  • Document association

Standard Asset Categories

Common collateral types include:

  • Real Estate: Residential, commercial, land

  • Vehicles: Automobiles, commercial vehicles, equipment

  • Financial Assets: Deposits, securities, receivables

  • Other Assets: Inventory, equipment, other tangible assets

Technical Implementation Note

Assets (collateral types) are configured in the SDK similarly to Participants:

  • Extend base entity classes with appropriate annotations

  • Implement required interfaces for document support

  • Define custom fields for asset-specific data

  • Create form classes for data entry validation

The SDK enables creation of any asset type with custom attributes, validation rules, and business logic.

Note: Asset customization requires SDK development. Contact your implementation team for specific collateral type requirements.

Collateral Requirements

Product-Level Configuration

Collateral requirements can be set at the additive level, allowing for:

  • Risk-based security requirements

  • Product-specific collateral types

  • Flexible loan-to-value ratios

  • Conditional collateral needs

Dynamic Requirements

The system supports conditional collateral requirements based on:

  • Borrower credit profile

  • Loan amount thresholds

  • Product risk characteristics

  • Regulatory requirements

Collateral Provider Role

Role Configuration

The Collateral Provider role can be:

  • A standalone role for third-party providers

  • Combined with existing roles (e.g., Borrower who provides collateral)

  • Associated with specific documentation requirements

  • Linked to workflow processes

Documentation

Collateral-related documents can be associated with:

  • The collateral asset itself

  • The Collateral Provider role

  • Specific workflow stages

  • Compliance requirements

Integration with Additives

Additive Configuration

When configuring additives, collateral settings include:

  • Collateral Requirements: Required/optional designation

  • Acceptable Types: Specific asset categories allowed

  • Coverage Ratios: Minimum LTV or coverage requirements

  • Valuation Rules: How assets are valued

Conditional Offers

The system handles scenarios where:

  • Borrowers qualify for products but lack required collateral

  • Offers are generated but remain unselectable until collateral is added

  • Dynamic recalculation occurs when collateral is provided

  • Multiple collateral options are available

Valuation Management

Valuation Methods

Configure how collateral values are determined:

  • Manual appraisal entry
