QomplyPi is a cloud-based application used by trading venues and investment firms. The QomplyPi platform centralises the maintenance, processing and distribution of personal sensitive data so as to comply with recent EU MiFID II regulations, GDPR, and data privacy. The solution promotes an integrated financial system, imposes a secure control framework, and reduces operational risk and resources.
The MiFID II Record Keeping Regulation (RTS24) requires all exchanges and trading venues to collect the personal sensitive data (DOB, passport no, NI, etc) of decision makers employed by investment firms operating on its platforms.
In theory, that sounds straight-forward - in reality, it’s a mess. Each exchange and trading venue has its own unique data delivery, format and collection framework to obtain this data from investment firms. There is no recognised standard format, communication channel, or delivery mechanism. Therefore, investment firms have had to conform to the requirement of each exchange.
Data Protection/Data Privacy and GDPR further complicate the landscape as these regulations prevent the distribution of personal sensitive data, if its not required.
Today, firms still struggle to effectively identify the required data, send it to the trading venue, and resolve/monitor issues in a manner specific to each trading venue.
QomplyPi is a cloud-based solution that centralises Personally Identifying Information (Pii), more commonly referred to as sensitive data, so as to control maintenance, distribution, and the chain of processing of the data.
Through the QomplyPi controlled environment, trading venues communicate directly with investment firms regarding the data they require. Investment firms, within the QomplyPi platform, can then enter, process, and transmit the Pii data directly to the exchange.
Investment firms enter their Pii data once and securely distribute to all trading venues and authorised recipients requiring the data.
Upload data to QomplyPi automatically via the open API or CSV upload or input manually.
Integrate with your existing technical infrastructure or use as stand-alone application.
Maintain data
through user-friendly web interface.
Investment firms enter data once and then identify the venues who are authorised to receive the data.
Investment firms send data directly to third parties
exchanges, trading venues, and ARMS
Trading venues send notifications to firms for data. Automatic reminders obtain data quickly for reporting
Each trading venue has their own data delivery method, messaging, and interface
Investment firms must conform to the requirements of each trading venue
Inconsistent communication has led to too much or too little data being distributed
Too often investment firms are spooked by breaching a MiFID Regulation that they may inadvertently breach a broader EU regulation on data protecting and data privacy, such as GDPR
Staff are forced to duplicate processes and manually manage exceptions whilst conducting resource-intensive tasks related to data acquisition and delivery
The identification of individuals interacting on trading venues can be arduous and error-prone.
Not all trading venues provide investment firms with an identifier of the traders participating on their platforms. Likewise, investment firms may lack the ability to accurately identify their own staff participating on these trading venues
Resource-intensive process for both venues and firms as identification, distribution, notification, monitoring and supporting personal data are complex processes.
QomplyPi offers one uniform data delivery method, messaging, and interface to which venues and firms interact
Trading venues communicate with firms via a centralised platform in a secure, controlled environment
Investment firms receive notifications/reminders for data requirements from trading venues
Investment firms enter data once only and then control the release across multiple, authorised recipients
Trading venues can automate cumbersome processes such as exceptions, notifications, and reporting
QomplyPi ensures sensitive data is subject to permissioned-access, authentication, and verification checks
QomplyPi provides complete monitoring of the chain of processing
Comprehensive data processing and data control system - built-in audit and surveillance
Seemless integration - Using the secure, open API, leverage your existing technical infrastructure or integrate the QomplyPi technology directly
Blockchain technology provides audit, security and risk mitigration
Investment firms enter data once and distribute in a controlled fashion across authorised recipients such as exchanges, trading venues and ARMS.
Since decision makers trade on multiple trading venues, users can configure data to be sent to multiple destinations for the same decision maker.
Consistent delivery mechanisms remove the need to maintain separate data repositories for each trading venue.
Firms centrally control the maintenance and distribution of their data.
Depending upon whether you are an investment firm or operating a trading venue, you will have access to tools you need for the function you perform.
If you are an investment firm, QomplyPi shows you the exchanges, trading venues and ARMS that require your data.
If you are a trading venue, readily identify investment firms who need to send you their data for their decision makers partipating on your venue. Automated notifications and reminders reduce effort and free-up resources.
QomplyPi also allows you to customise an export files and recipients so as to be able to send data to any authorised destination.
For trading venues and exchanges, QomplyPi automatically identifies participants on your venue that have not provided their sensitive data. QomplyPi alerts you when these firms make data available. Send instant notices to your clients informing them of shortcodes to which they must provide data.
For investment firms, QomplyPi automatically identifies shortcodes required by third party exchanges and trading Venues. Distribute only the sensitive data that is required. This removes the risk of releasing too much data to venues and exchanges. Receive alerts from venues and exchanges when new data is required.
The ability for financial institutions to efficiently access and process data to fulfil regulatory requirements is at the core of QomplyPi.
By providing a secure, integrated system, QomplyPi bridges communication and data delivery between exchanges and their participants from investment firms.
This integration is not only evident in its ability to bridge trading venues with investment firms but also in QomplyPi’s ability to consume data from internal trading systems and operational infrastructures.
QomplyPi has a secure, open API so that users may integrate by leveraging their existing technical infrastructure or by interacting with QomplyPi exclusively. All data can be inserted automatically into QomplyPi via its API or uploaded via its CSV upload facility.
Users can schedule reminders, notifications, and data transfers thereby reducing user-interaction to simple monitoring tasks.
Process automation allows staff to direct effort where it is most valuable.
