Clearing
Sophisticated market participants need counterparty diversification. Clear Street fills this gap with real-time transparency, cross-asset flexibility and modern clearing infrastructure.
Unified Clearing for a Fragmented Market
Legacy clearing models are fragmented and opaque, creating friction between execution, custody and financing. Clear Street was built differently – with a single, cloud-native, cross-asset ledger. Broker-dealers, market makers and futures clients gain real-time visibility into balances, collateral and exposures, improving control, reducing operational risk and unlocking capital efficiency.

We give our clients the technology, tools and service once reserved for the largest institutions, rebuilt with modern infrastructure. Our single, cloud-native, end-to-end capital markets platform powers investor growth today and is transforming how they can interact with markets tomorrow.

Our platform clears and settles U.S. equities, listed options and futures across virtually all major venues. Futures clients can access benchmark index, rate and commodity products. New products and listings can be onboarded rapidly thanks to Clear Street’s modular infrastructure.
What sets Clear Street’s clearing infrastructure apart?
Clear Street’s clearing platform was built in-house on a single, cloud-native ledger that unifies clearing, custody and risk management. This eliminates reconciliation delays and provides real-time transparency into margin, collateral and funding.
How does Clear Street manage risk and ensure stability at scale?
We continuously monitor risk through an integrated, microservices-based ledger that recalculates margin intraday. This enables consistent capital efficiency and institutional-grade controls, even during volatility. In 2025, for example, the platform handled a sudden doubling of clearing volumes without disruption – maintaining >99.9% STP and ~99.95% uptime across its critical systems.
