CRS the tools, consultancy and know-how sharing for storage and sharing of collateral-related information with a focus on setting processes in compliance with local legislation. The daily operation of the solution, interpretation and legal relevance of the stored information is highly dependent on the way the CRS is used and supported by the local legislation.
