See how we helped a Tier 1 Canadian financial institution modernize its CIRO regulatory reporting framework end-to-end: rethinking data architecture, eligibility logic, and operating model design to meet increasing demands for accuracy, transparency, and timeliness.

We explore how firms can move from fragmented, proprietary data models to a machine-executable, industry-aligned “golden source” using the ISDA Common Domain Model (CDM), through a practical migration roadmap—from mapping legacy models to CDM, to embedding CDM directly into post-trade and upstream booking systems—showing how standardization reduces downstream fixes, improves auditability, and unlocks automation across reporting, risk, and collateral.

Our latest white paper, Regulatory Trade Reporting Controls & Best Practices, outlines a practical, end-to-end control framework across the full reporting pipeline. It focuses on the controls that matter most today—preventing errors upstream, detecting issues early, and reducing reliance on manual remediation and vendor support.
