¿Qué es Sponsored repo?

Definition 5.5 Markets II: Rates, FX and Credit · Capítulo 5 — Repo and Specials

In sponsored repo a dealer that is a member of the Treasury clearing house sponsors a non-member, typically a money-market fund lending cash or a hedge fund borrowing it, into the clearing house: the trade is novated to the central counterparty and nets against the dealer’s other cleared trades.

Three ways to do the same repo. Bilaterally, the cash lender can ask for a specific security. In tri-party, an agent bank allocates collateral from the dealer’s inventory to fit the lender’s schedule. Sponsored, a dealer brings both sides into the clearing house, which faces each of them, and the dealer’s two trades net.
