Some 25 independent software vendors (ISVs) within UnaVista’s Partner Programme are now looking to include SFTR services as part of their offering to clients.
The ISVs will be connected directly into UnaVista, allowing its clients to report all their required transactions through their existing connections and onto UnaVista’s trade repository, in preparation for the new Securities Financing Transaction Regulations (SFTR), due to be implemented next year.
Partner firms include Calypso Technology, Equilend, IHS Markit, MarketAxess Trax, Message Automation and Murex S.A.S.
Ahead of SFTR reporting go-live, clients can now simulate their reporting and perform data gap analysis using UnaVista’s SFTR Accelerator tool.
The UnaVista Accelerator tool will enable clients to test for and address any data discrepancies, formatting issues or shortages before the regulation goes live.
UnaVista is also working with clearing houses, such as LCH Group’s RepoClear and CC&G, to give their clearing members the option of assisted reporting.
Mark Husler, CEO of UnaVista, said: “We have been working with the industry for a number of years now to create a network of connected market participants.”
“This gives the client options as to how they want to report, to make it as simple as possible for the industry.”
He added: “Our Partner Programme has also inspired new product innovations that not only helps firms to reduce the burden of accessing their data but can also help them improve their matching, data enrichment and reporting.”
