Meet your Best Execution requirements while improving your trading performance

MiFID II has dramatically increased the requirements for Best Execution. Firms now have to provide evidence they were acting in their clients’ best interests on all trades, requiring regular reporting and Transaction Cost Analysis (TCA). However, bringing together and storing the relevant data from multiple sources to achieve this can be both time consuming and onerous.

With SteelEye’s comprehensive and asset class agnostic Best Execution solution you can effortlessly meet your reporting requirements and carry out TCA to improve your trading performance. The solution builds on the SteelEye Core Package and includes RTS 27 and RTS 28 reporting, and post-trade TCA.

Best Execution compliance that just works

Automatically, Painlessly and Continuously

RTS 27 AND 28 REPORTING

SteelEye's Best Execution package seamlessly brings together your trading data, complementing it with a range of independent market and reference data, before automatically building your quarterly RTS 27 or annual RTS28 reports.

Reports can be easily reviewed and amended in the dashboard before being exported in CSV format, ready for you to publish on your website or another site of your choosing. As a result, compliance with your best execution reporting requirements is effortless, automatic and hassle-free.

How it works

We capture all of your relevant Best Execution reporting data and automatically build your RTS 27 and RTS 28 reports.
All data is enriched with external market and tick data as required.
Reports are easily reviewed, validated and exported in CSV format, ready for you to upload on your website or an alternative site.

TCA

Easily evaluate your trading activity and gain comprehensive insight into the relative performance of your post-trade executions.

SteelEye’s TCA seamlessly consolidates your data from a range of sources and automatically enriches it with external tick and reference data sourced from a range of international exchanges. With all data under one lens, our TCA analyses your trading activity against a range of reference points, offering standardised metrics for internal assessment and comparisons against numerous industry benchmarks.

Background

TCA has been an important function within financial services for years. However, as MiFID II was introduced it brought with it stricter best execution rules, extending the coverage to include new asset classes and increasing the reporting requirements.

This heightened the importance of TCA to demonstrate transparency and best execution, introducing new challenges around how to bring together the vast amounts of data required.
