Real-Time Surveillance on the Cloud: For a UK-headquartered global bank, we refactored their on-premise surveillance solution to GCP BigQuery, achieving real-time analytics instead of T+1, reducing run-time costs by 90%, and simplifying the change process.
Protecting Canada from Market Abuse: For a Canadian financial regulator, we designed and deployed automated reporting systems to identify anomalies in quote and order data, improving data quality and providing actionable insights for data providers.
Cross-Asset Trade Surveillance: For a global USA bank, we built a robust modern data platform capable of real-time and T+1 surveillance across all asset classes, improving trade surveillance efficiency by approximately 200% and accelerating analyst actions threefold.
Protecting Australia from Market Abuse: FD implemented a real-time surveillance solution for the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) to detect trading anomalies across all asset classes and markets in real-time, enabling immediate identification and action on questionable activity.
