"At Droit, accurately digitising regulation is at the core of what we do. Integrating LSEG as one of the reference data sources into our Position Reporting product represents an important step in addressing our clients' challenges and allowing them to benefit from the most accurate and comprehensive solution for shareholding disclosures."

The rules are built using consensus interpretations of the regulations, reviewed and refined through Endoxa, in conjunction with some of the  largest and most complex financial institutions. Overall, the platform provides operational efficiency, confidence underpinned by consensus, and transparency of decisions linked directly to the original source text as well as legal and consensus memos.
