Best Execution

Preparing for Greater Transparency, Accountability, and Regulatory Scrutiny

If a regulator walked in the door today, would your best execution policies and procedures hold up to an exam? Around the globe, both regulators and investors are raising expectations for transparency and accountability. To keep pace, firms must be able to demonstrate execution quality with defensible evidence.

The right approach can transform raw execution data into insights that reveal trading desk performance, where costs and slippage occur, and what it all means for oversight. By incorporating transaction cost analysis (TCA) alongside qualitative context, such as trader rationale and venue selection, firms can build a more complete picture of execution quality and align with compliance best practices.
