Press release
b.fine, an innovative challenger in the RegTech industry and advisor for regulatory reporting is extending its capabilities with trade and transaction reporting by partnering with Point Nine. Point Nine is the latest partner that has joined b.fine’s RegTech ecosystem built around its b.rx platform.
Financial institutions are being exposed to a regulatory tsunami with ever increasing reporting complexity and data requirements. Moreover, the amount of data is constantly increasing and thus, financial services professionals experience more difficulties with their regulatory reporting processes.
b.rx is a reporting platform that makes regulatory reporting less complex, more efficient and more cost-effective. The high level of automation and digitalization of the reporting processes within b.rx relieves reporting teams and allows financial institutions to regain control and oversight over their reporting processes. By offering a solution based on components in the cloud and opting for Reporting As A Service, we step away from the one size fits all approach and deliver a tailor-made platform that is adapted to your reporting needs.
By relying on an ecosystem where we connect the best of breed solutions, financial institutions are able to create, monitor, manage and visualize their reporting processes in one central platform. By including Point Nine’s solution for trade and transaction reporting into the b.rx Marketplace, we are drastically extending our reporting coverage and are able to offer a one-stop shop experience for regulatory compliance. Point Nine and b.fine will support organizations to improve the quality and accuracy of their regulatory reporting for all regimes.
Andreas Roussos, CEO of Point Nine, states: “Our aim is to provide a peace-of-mind trade and transaction reporting service to all market participants in the capital markets. Our partnership with b.fine will combine our proficiency, in this way, will enable existing and potential clients to benefit from our leading products and services as well as their regulatory expertise.”
“Our idea of the b.rx Marketplace is to create an extensive RegTech ecosystem from which the reporting platform can be composed according to your needs. Partnering with Point Nine and making their platform available on the b.rx Marketplace allows us to go beyond regulatory reporting and provide financial institutions an answer to the trade and transaction reporting challenges.” Says Klaas Van Imschoot, CEO of b.fine.
