Our SFTR Reporting Specialist Jonathan Lee on the challenges buy-side firms are facing as the SFTR reporting obligation goes live for them today. The interview covers the following questions:
SFTR reporting seemed to go smoothly for the first and second cohort of firms in July. Is it likely to be the same for the buy-side?
How is SFTR reporting different for buy-side firms than sell-side firms?
What’s your advice for buy-side firms planning to fully delegate their reporting?
Do you expect reporting quality to be better or worse?
Any advice for buy-side firms for the next few weeks?
