15:45 – 16:40    Roundtable discussion: Telstra: “Beyond Compliance – from data capture to business insight”

Recent financial regulations such as MiFID II, Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) and Dodd-Frank have posed a tremendous challenge  to market participants –both buy-side and sell-side. One example is Article 76 of the MiFID II Directive, which mandates firms to capture, store and monitor communications to meet stringent regulatory requirements. The task is made tougher by the breadth of data, which encompasses everything from voice to electronic communication, and which must be assessed holistically in order to find patterns of behaviour that ought to be flagged up to compliance. Moderator/speaker: Andy Mather, Financial Services and Emerging Technology, Telstra
