Spotlight on

EMIR Refit Testing

With the deadlines for EMIR Refit fast approaching – EU Refit 29th April 2024 & UK Refit 30th September 2024 – firms should be well advanced with their UAT testing.

Firms are struggling with testing environments – particularly understanding the drivers of errors and the effectiveness of their submission file changes. The question we are most frequently asked is:

What options do I have outside of inhouse & trade repository test environments?

Proud to partner with

Experience led, technology-enabled

Being regulatory compliant with constantly evolving obligations globally is challenging enough. Fixing compliance breaches is much harder. That’s where we come in.

Advisory Services

ESG/SUSTAINABILITY
Complete ESG solutions, from strategy to embedding best practice at a functional level and large operational initiatives.

By working directly with regulators and market peers, we are able to provide our clients with an alternative to resourcing ESG projects internally. We have demonstrable experience of the tangible benefits that can be realised by firms if they partner with the right advisor.
TRANSACTIONS/TRADE REPORTING
Transaction and Trade Reporting is an enormous challenge for every [reporting-eligible] financial markets participant, not least because of the range and diversity of mandatory obligations in and between global reporting regimes.

Our dedicated and expert transaction/trade reporting consultants, and specialist service delivery teams, support every aspect of the end to end transaction lifecycle, pre to post trade, across all assets and reporting regimes.
RISK MANAGEMENT
Often seen as a cost centre rather than a value generator, effective risk management can add considerable value to any organisation.

By working directly with regulators and industry peers, we deliver cross-enterprise risk management efficiencies and practices that extend beyond regulatory obligations to contribute directly to your business success.
OPERATIONAL RESILIENCE
Demonstrable operational resilience is an imperative for financial institutions.

By March 2025, every firm subject to UK PRA and FCA joint legislation must be ready to demonstrate ‘full operational resilience’ or face hefty fines. Yet many financial firms have yet to act to meet mandatory operational resilience obligations.

Our Operational Resilience and Digital Operational Resilience (DORA) programmes and service help you meet these new requirements.
COMPLIANCE
Managing the complexity and burden of regulatory compliance is an enormous challenge in terms of costs and resources.

In an ideal world, your firm would have a large team of inhouse specialists focused on meeting ever-changing and complex compliance needs.

Since this is typically not the reality, our complete Compliance solutions range from strategic direction to embedding best practice at a functional level.
AUTHORISATIONS
It has never been more difficult for financial firms to achieve FCA authorisation.

In 2021, for example, only 7% of authorisations were accepted; in 2022 this rose to 20% - still a high fail rate. Experts on authorisations processes, we have a 100% success rate working with banks, asset managers and crypto asset firms to achieve regulatory authorisation.
