It’s all about the data. Regulatory scrutiny is intensifying and shows no signs of letting up. From MiFID to SFTR, firms are being asked to report on more data fields than ever before.
To help lessen firms’ operational burden, Xceptor is partnered with the DTCC to underpin the global DTCC Reporting Hub. Within DTCC’s Global Trade Repository (GTR), clients are able to leverage Xceptor’s data transformation capabilities to enrich, normalise and validate data before submitting it to the trade repository. Xceptor accepts data in any format and from any source, significantly simplifying the compliance process for all DTCC GTR clients.
Xceptor is an industry-wide solution. DTCC’s GTR processes more than one billion messages per month, covering over 40 million open transactions. Xceptor is relied upon to function at this scale and through our common platform model, all Xceptor clients have access to this scalability.
