Trade Surveillance System

Investigate faster. Comply with confidence. Reduce your regulatory risk.

Real-time monitoring Configurable rule library Shared best-practice alerts
Trade Surveillance System

Compass Trade Surveillance System continuously monitors order and trade flow to detect market manipulation and other abusive trading practices — from spoofing and layering to wash trading, marking the close, and front running. Every alert can be visualized down to the individual order, so your compliance team can investigate potential market abuse quickly and efficiently rather than piecing together a timeline by hand.

Order events and messages are captured into a time-series database and evaluated continuously by a real-time analysis rules engine, surfacing alerts and investigation tools the moment a pattern crosses a threshold. Alert rules are fully configurable to fit your business and minimize false positives, and every user benefits from a shared library of best-practice alerts developed and refined across the full Compass user base.

  • Investigate potential market abuse scenarios quickly and efficiently
  • Comply with market regulations and internal risk policies
  • Simplify investigations with an intuitive, purpose-built GUI
  • Reduce operational cost and increase compliance team efficiency
  • Reduce exposure to punitive regulatory fines
