Cappitech, a leading provider of regulatory reporting and intelligence technology for the financial services industry, and Trax, a provider of capital market data, trade matching and regulatory reporting services, have entered into an agreement to enable mutual customers to streamline their MiFID II transaction reporting.
The agreement aims to allow financial institutions to meet their MiFID II reporting requirements seamlessly, including daily transaction reporting. Over 40 of Cappitech’s customers are already benefitting from the enhanced MiFID II transaction reporting that the integration offers including German insurance company, Provinzial NordWest; Swiss bank, Swissquote; and Irish broker, AvaTrade.
Ian Webb, Head of Compliance at AvaTrade, says: “Through Cappitech and Trax’s cooperation, we have been able to automate our MiFID II reporting to the Central Bank of Ireland. The solution also provides us with an easy to use portal to review reports and messages from the ARM and NCA.”
“We are delighted to partner with Trax, a provider of best-in-class APA and ARM services, to offer our customers a comprehensive, secure and automated solution that allows them to streamline their MiFID II reporting and reduce operational risk and costs,” says Ronen Kertis (pictured), Founder and CEO of Cappitech. “The integration of the Cappitech and Trax offerings will enhance our mutual customers’ ability to both comply with regulatory reporting requirements and compete effectively in an increasingly competitive marketplace.”
“We’ve been working with Cappitech since MiFID I and our clients that use Cappitech’s technology to assist with their regulatory reporting have done so with great success. Our continued work with Cappitech will help firms navigate the complex regulatory reporting environment MiFID II has brought to the industry,” says Christopher Smith, Head of Trax.
