A Journey – OTC Derivatives Reporting Rewrite and Impact to Asia
Join us as we examine how the REFIT Regulation will impact Asia's regulated firms, and discuss best practices with industry experts.
Panel: Creating robust reporting solutions: where we've been, where we're going
Regulatory focus is shifting from getting the data in to ensuring its high quality (complete, accurate and timely). Our panel of experts will discuss the evolution of data quality since reporting start, client challenges to meeting the mandates and lessons learned from around the globe (MIFIR, EMIR, Dodd-Frank, APAC). The panel will also discuss how reporting parties need to prepare their infrastructures to meet the upcoming regulatory mandates of completeness and accuracy coming into force in 2024.
