STP Enhances Lightspeed TDMS with SmartSettle AI to Deliver Predictive Settlement Intelligence
Integrated predictive analytics enhance fails management, pre-matching, and settlement risk visibility
STP Investment Services (STP), a global provider of technology-enabled investment operations, fund administration, and compliance solutions, has enhanced its Lightspeed Trade Data Management System (TDMS) through the integration of SmartSettle AI, a new module designed to extend settlement workflows beyond traditional automation and deliver predictive intelligence directly within post-trade operations.

Lightspeed TDMS will continue to serve as STP’s operational foundation, providing automated processing, real-time visibility, and normalized data across custodians, brokers, and asset classes. SmartSettle AI is directly integrated into the Lightspeed TDMS platform, adding an advanced layer of intelligence and predictive insights that operate within existing workflows already used by settlement teams.
Through this integration, STP is expanding the capabilities of its trade settlements service to provide more accurate fails tracking and reporting, enhanced pre-matching and intelligent exception prioritization, and earlier identification of potential TMPG fails and future CSDR penalties. The platform also delivers automated settlement inventory status notifications to support timely recalls and reduce settlement risk, along with predictive analytics designed to identify potential settlement issues before they occur.
“By incorporating SmartSettle AI into the Lightspeed TDMS offering, STP continues to advance a more transparent, intelligent, and future-ready post-trade environment,” said Kaisha Schnoll, Vice President, Trade Settlements, at STP Investment Services. “The integration reflects the firm’s focus on supporting clients as operational complexity increases and regulatory timelines accelerate.”
The enhancement comes at a critical moment for global markets. Following the U.S. transition to a T+1 settlement cycle in 2024, the United Kingdom and European Union are scheduled to move to T+1 in October 2027, significantly compressing operational timelines and reducing tolerance for error across the post-trade lifecycle. As a result, firms operating in these markets will face increased exposure to financial penalties and compliance risk, making real-time visibility and proactive exception management increasingly important.
SmartSettle AI is designed to address these emerging challenges for global firms by providing continuous, real-time insight into settlement risk, pre-matching status, and potential failure points. As post-trade operations teams prepare for accelerated settlement timelines, immediate visibility into unmatched transactions and at-risk inventory positions will become essential. By introducing these capabilities ahead of the T+1 transition, STP is enabling earlier intervention, greater operational certainty, and reduced exposure to penalties as global settlement regimes evolve.
