SteelEye has developed an intelligent data engine with analytics that provide insights to firms beyond the regulatory dimension with an ability to view, search and analyse structured, unstructured and semi-structured data through a single lens. This makes regulatory reporting simple and seamless to implement, providing a competitive advantage to firms, whilst also supplying further specialised solutions for MIFID II/MIFIR, Best Execution, Trade Reconstruction, Record Keeping and Surveillance.

MAP FinTech is part of one of Europe's largest financial services advisory groups, MAP S.Platis, who are a standard-setter in EMIR reporting for online brokers and one of the very first to have reported under EMIR.

The reconciliation, validation and monitoring capabilities of its Polaris platform make it a very useful tool for compliance officers.

The respective emphasis of both SteelEye and MAP FinTech on facilitating regulatory compliance through advanced technology helps to reduce the cost, complexity and risk faced by financial markets firms. The new collaborative partnership holds much promise for current and prospective clients worldwide.
