Abstract: Lender anonymity securities lending where trade criteria associated with a security owned by a client are determined. Bids for the security are monitored by a first entity. A trade related to the security is executed by accepting a best bid from the monitored bids based on the trade criteria. An identical trade related to the security is automatically executed with a second entity. A second identical trade as the trade related to the security is automatically executed with inter-dealer brokers without any knowledge of the first entity. The first entity may be a banking division of a financial institution and the second entity may be a broker/dealer division of a financial institution. Complete anonymity is provided to the client from the inter-dealer brokers since the trade executed automatically with the second entity is put into a separate trading book maintaining a firewall between the client and the inter-dealer brokers.

Abstract: A computer system is provided for implementing, managing and tracking financial transactions. Various users may use this system to access a database for information retrieval or for entering a set of commands to cause the database to process loan transactions or fund transfers. The system is set up so that these transaction requests may then be conveniently approved or disapproved by the lending institution. There is also a security measure in place to ensure that only proper authorized users may access this respective system to retrieve, confirm, request, alter, or approve the fund transfer.
