FIA Tech partners with exchanges and index providers to create analytic service to simplify trading of index futures

Washington, DC, 23 November 2021— FIA Tech, the futures industry’s leading technology provider, today announced that together with nine futures exchanges and five index providers including FTSE Russell, MSCI, Standard & Poors and Taiwan Index Plus Corporation, it has launched a new analytic service to help US trading firms and investors navigate complex regulations governing trading of non-US index derivatives.

Due to the regulatory requirements of the joint SEC/CFTC jurisdiction over non-US index futures, the classification of indices as “narrow based” or “broad based” drives whether and how products can be traded by US clients. In order to ensure that firms remain compliant with regulations, clearing firms, buy side firms and exchanges must be able to monitor the regulatory classification of index futures on a continuous basis. In the past year, index futures with significant global volume incurred classification changes, which unexpectedly required many US clients to offload positions and cease trading the products.

The new FIA Tech analytics and data service will offer a central source of validated data for firms to use for non-US index classifications, providing consistent market data and analytics so that market participants can come to accurate, consistent determinations.

FIA Tech has partnered with exchanges including Nasdaq, B3, Tokyo Stock Exchange, TSX, BME Market Data, Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, Budapest Stock Exchange and Matba Rofex to design the service. It has been deployed to FIA Tech’s existing reference data network to provide a validated source of data for use by each institution’s compliance teams. (未完請詳連結)
