Video: ACA’s Charlotte Longman and Matt Chapman Discuss the Challenges and Solutions of Transaction Reporting

Subscribe to our newsletter

In this video, Charlotte Longman and Matt Chapman, managing directors and co-leads of ACA’s regulatory reporting monitoring and assurance solution – and winners of  the most innovative trade and transaction reporting initiative in A-Team Group’s Innovation Awards 2022 – discuss the state of play in transaction reporting, the scale and detail of regulatory reporting breaches, and how poor quality reporting can sometimes go unnoticed.

They also consider solutions to these problems ranging from reviewing reports with an expert eye, to building a reporting framework, and implementing strong, independent monitoring. With these elements in place, it becomes possible to achieve not only compliance with regulatory obligations, but also the benefits of applying analytics to the reported data for business purposes.
