The Consolidated Audit Trail (CAT) regulations, including CAIS, are triggering one of the largest and most expensive IT rebuilds in the history of capital markets. The increased compliance burden has forced many firms to consider redesigning their existing reporting platforms in order to meet the challenge. The volume of data needed to meet reporting requirements had gone up significantly and the time required to resolve errors has shortened, forcing most firms to adopt bespoke solutions to avoid regulator penalties.

The 3forge AMI platform manages the entire CAT compliance reporting cycle from start to finish, including CAIS requirements. The platform can be implemented at a fraction of the cost and time of comparable product offerings - thereby providing full CAT compliance and significantly reducing operating cost. The solution is highly configurable and is designed to automate the trade reporting and error resolution process as well as maintain and store a transparent audit trail.
