FPL enters the ring

What great news that FPL has put their hat in the ring to bring the consolidated tape to market. They had such terriffic success with establishing FIX and are one of the few organisations that has acheived notable success in the securities industry over the last decade and more. Its vitally important for the global securities industry that the des...

Getting a better deal for the investor

Since MiFID the EU markets have changed forever and we all have to get used to the new order, however, change often brings about unforeseen problems and business opportunities leading to unintended consequences that then lead to disruption and a loss of confidence in the market by the investor. There is no doubt that in many areas the stock market...

False Economy at SIBOS

It's popular to have a good kick at the nearest banker as the world struggles to recover from the financial crisis but SIBOS was weird because so many people were talking about the crisis as just a bad memory. The feel good factor at SIBOS does not measure up, as if the EU announce spending cuts in line with the UK, this will at the least, cause di...

Join the XBRL Group on FINEXTRA and be part of the future

This is a blatant advert for new members to join the FINEXTRA XBRL Group. Discussions at SIBOS has led to me building a EU initiative to compliment the USA/SWIFT/XBRL project. It's not worth waiting to see the results in the USA! It's going to work and i want to explode this globally. Planning on a first group meeting is underway and i would like ...

The day stockbroking died

SIBOS may have just witnessed a day that put the first nail in 'execution only stockbroking'. peterevans one of the smaller software houses is demonstrating its new app, which basically negates the need for the middle man (stockbroker) by executing directly on the Stock Exchange. The obvious thought is to link the app to the wholesale market and g...

SIBOS getting 'appy'

This year SIBOS in an 'appy' mood. With a number of vendors demoing apps, in particular, I was really impressed with peterevans and Information Mosaic (IM) who have both produced great apps that will set the trend for the future. peterevans has a great trade execution app and IM something wonderful in Corporate Actions. I predict that next years S...

Lets hear it for the news

A lasting memory of SIBOS this year is the fantastic job that FINEXTRA has done in bringing up to date news, informative interviews, comments and some real entertainment during very long days. Nick Hastings and his team take a bow! In my opinion delegates could benefit furthur, if the FINEXTRA news/ topical videos featured more in the future, by pe...

SEPA finally getting some teeth

The news that SEPA is going to be forced down the throats of Banks is a very welcome move all be it several years late. Banks anr like Turkeys never voting for Xmas and the embarrasing phoney war that has been waged over SEPA has resulted in an inevitable regulatory and legal motivation. Lets hope that any sanctions are pitched at a severe level I...

What about a SWIFT App on a mobile phone!

At this weeks annual corporate actions conference in New York a presentationby Gerrard Bermingham from Information Mosaic extolled the benefits of mobile technology carrying corporate action data to the investor. It is a really interesting prospect that could bring the decision making capability on a CA or proxy vote directly into the hands of the...

This is the start of something big

At the recent annual Corporate Action conference in New York this week the hot topic was the significant progress being made by the DTCC and SWIFT with XBRL to standardise Issuer data. The audience was made up of mainly Investment Management firms but with a good sprinkling of all the great and the good banks. It was remarkable how warmly the XBRL...
