The real business impact of MiFID II
On January 3, 2018 MiFID II goes live. It’s one of the biggest pieces of regulation to ever hit the buy-side industry. You may think it’s “just another database project”, but really, it’s an opportunity to assess existing workflows in trading, regulatory reporting, client management and improve governance in general.
In this 30-minute webinar SimCorp’s MiFID II expert, Gernot Schmidt, outlines business areas affected by MiFID II and illustrates how you can address these areas by leveraging an integrated Investment Book of Record. He's joined by Frank Heyder who shares proactive strategies for regulation change management.
This webinar covers these areas of MiFID II:
- MIFIR transaction reporting
- Electronic trading and instrument coverage
- Post-trade transparency
- Best execution
