Offered as a SaaS product, Cappitech solutions cater to financial firms such as brokers, banks, and asset managers to automate their trade reporting functions. The company now expands its presence to help Spanish and Portuguese institutions affected by the new regulation keep on top of their reporting requirements.
The new compliance requirements are fundamentally a data challenge, and thus Cappitech will provide their new partners to acquire the reporting software directly or to outsource reporting services to Intermoney, using Cappitech’s technology.
A soft go-live before SFTR deadline
Under the new rules, securities financing transactions such as lending and repo, pension and UCITS funds will have to start reporting in 2020. However, Intermoney and other firms are considering a soft launch prior to their deadline, and dealers are going to require pieces of information prior to that deadline.
Firms subject to SFTR will be required to report 155 data fields daily, including unique transaction identifier (UTI), legal entity identifier (LEI), and master agreement for each trade.
Commenting on the partnership, Joaquín Vázquez, Managing Director of Intermoney said: "In an environment in which regulatory reporting is increasingly consuming entities’ scarce resources, this alliance allows us to offer a best-in-class service at a lower cost of ownership for our customers.”
Ronen Kertis, CEO and Founder of Cappitech, added: "Working with Intermoney, who have extensive experience and long-standing client relationships, allows us to bring our award winning technology to the Spanish market. As with other markets, local financial services firms require integrated solutions that work across regulations and can easily assimilate new ones such as the soon-to-be-implemented SFTR, without adding complexity or excessive cost.”
