The derivatives industry increasingly recognizes the need for greater standardization, automation and digitization across the trade lifecycle, from the creation and negotiation of legal documents to post-trade processing.

This paper compares a paper-based legal document negotiation process to the workflow of ISDA Create, built on the CreateiQ platform.

The paper also explains how ISDA Create introduces greater document standardization and helps firms better manage their legal data.
