Methods and systems for securities lending transactions are disclosed. The disclosed system provides a hub for electronic financial transactions, such as securities borrowing and lending, and facilitates the ability of borrowers and lenders to locate suitable counterparties and engage in direct negotiations in a securities lending transaction. The invention also includes processes that allow users to compare loan contracts for equities and fixed income securities, identify discrepancies in terms, and view and reconcile the discrepancies online. Contract comparison is a reconciliation process that allows two legal entities to compare loan contracts, return records, recall records and collateral records on predefined parameters on a regular basis. The process facilitates the daily mark-to-market process and month-end billing process by identifying and reconciling discrepancies early in the lifecycle of a trade.
