Trade surveillance systems are a benchmark defense for global sell-side firms, triggering alerts of suspicious activity. To be effective, they must process vast amounts of complex data from multiple sources in real time. They must also comply with an ever-evolving network of regulations shaping how they function. These shifting regulations, coupled with the emergence of new technologies, particularly artificial intelligence, are reshaping the trade surveillance function.

This report captures industry voices and reveals emerging priorities in the trade surveillance space. This study was driven by detailed discussions with senior executives in trade/market surveillance, compliance, and technology. Interviewees represent 20 leading global sell-side financial institutions.
