Smartstream Deploys MCP Infrastructure to Power Agentic AI Across Smart Collateral Platform

Editorial Calendar World-Region-Country Smartstream Deploys MCP Infrastructure to Power Agentic AI Across Smart Collateral Platform The architectural release enables dynamic, agentic collateral operations by allowing global financial institutions to connect any MCP-compatible AI assistant directly to their underlying collateral engine. Through natural language conversations, operations teams can query complex datasets and execute controlled workflow automations while maintaining native risk governance. Traditionally, during periods of heightened market volatility, collateral management teams must navigate multiple systems, screens, and static reports to assemble a clear view of positions, margin calls, and eligibility criteria.

This manual data gathering introduces delays and increases operational risk. By implementing an open, standards-based MCP framework, Smartstream allows institutions to utilize existing, internally approved AI assistants rather than locking them into a closed, proprietary vendor ecosystem. The infrastructure gives teams immediate conversational access to collateral agreements, positions, margin activity, and interest calculations.

“Collateral teams spend too much of their day hunting for answers and writing integration code,” statedJason Ang,program manager for Smart Collateral at Smartstream. “These MCP servers let firms point an AI assistant of their choosing straight at Smart Collateral, interrogating reporting data on demand, operating the integration APIs and, only where they choose to enable it, acting under their control… It is an open, standards-based approach that keeps our clients in charge of their data, their workflows and their governance.” Smartstream’s deployment separates administrative and reporting functions into two distinct MCP servers to preserve security and data integrity: API Integration Server:Converts Smart Collateral’s core integration APIs into an actionable toolset for AI assistants. The server enables pre-validation of proposed movements against concentration and eligibility rules prior to execution.

Crucially, all write actions—such as creating movements or issuing margin calls—are disabled by default and must be explicitly opted into by each institution. API Integration Server:Converts Smart Collateral’s core
