Though regulatory reporting is a key requirement for any financial services company, inefficiencies and errors has prompted 65 percent of the companies to change their reporting in the last 12 months, according to a survey conducted by Cappitech.
The Israeli company surveyed and gathered data in autumn 2020 from 89 respondents consisting of banks, brokerages, asset managers, hedge funds, corporates, and other institutions globally.
Published on Tuesday, the results highlighted that new and changing regulations in many jurisdictions and the effect on Coronavirus in the industry are also affecting the companies and their compliance with regulatory reporting.
Another event that affected many companies directly or indirectly was the exit of CME and Deutsche Borse from the transaction and regulatory reporting market. Cappitech itself was using CME’s services and completed the first vendor-led trade reporting data without utilizing CME’s infrastructure in August.
