Assumptions and task

Fictional teaching case: trade economics match, but receiving instructions require review. The case record contains no confirmed securities or cash movement. This sample is not a shipped scenario identifier or a jurisdiction-specific rulebook.

Identify missing evidence, record the issue, seek the required controlled approval and determine what must be confirmed before a reconciled outcome can be recorded. Discuss the response if the cutoff is missed.

Evidence to collect: Submit an exception note, control rationale and evidence checklist. This illustrative activity does not assign a platform score.

Record what is known, what remains unconfirmed and why a release is or is not justified. Use the selected platform scenario's actual rules and debrief criteria during a demonstration.

Calculation or decision method

Separate matching, approval, asset movement and reconciliation. An approval alone does not establish that settlement occurred.

Questions and answers

Frequently asked questions

What is CapitalBOS?

CapitalBOS is the Back Office Settlement Simulator. Learners investigate fictional trade, cash, custody and corporate-action records, work through exceptions and controls, and explain a reconciled outcome. Its focus is operational judgment rather than executing real trades.

Related information

Does a matched trade mean settlement has occurred?

No. Matching establishes agreement on the relevant trade details; it does not by itself prove release approval, securities or cash movement, or reconciliation. CapitalBOS exercises ask learners to distinguish these stages and identify the evidence needed for the case.

Related information

What can an instructor review in a CapitalBOS exercise?

CapitalBOS supports scenario practice and saved debriefs that can help instructors examine decisions, issues and reasoning. Confirm the selected release’s cohort, inspection and export workflows in the demonstration. A platform score or completed scenario does not independently establish professional competence.

Related information

Do CapitalBOS examples provide complete regulatory coverage?

No. US, UK and France-focused EU examples illustrate selected operational topics. They are not comprehensive jurisdictional rulebooks or legal advice. Institutions must verify actual market rules, cutoffs, authorizations and controls before applying a lesson to real operations.
