Geraldine Gibson-Dautun, CEO of AQMetrics says: “When MiFID II firms sign up for this fully automated MiFID II service they will be experiencing their future customer journey through AQMetrics regulatory approved reporting mechanism and as such will be experiencing a way of reporting MiFID II transactions that will soon become commonplace for all MiFID II firms large and small alike.”

The release follows a number of new initiatives from AQMetrics targeted towards EU investment managers, including the opening of its MiFID II data management, approved reporting mechanism for transaction reporting and three way reconciliation engine up to the wider internet.
