Meet Larry Bannerman - President of Finiti

​Tell us a little about your organization and why you got into this space.

 
At Finiti, our goal is to reduce the regulatory reporting burden associated with producing financial statements and MRFPs. Our team of project managers, technologists, proofreaders and designers is nimble and flexible, because filing deadlines aren’t. Since 1988, we’ve lived the inevitability of change from any number of stakeholders, including securities commissions, auditors, legal counsel, translation services, and shifting products and brands. To address these challenges, we developed a managed software that allows our clients to adjust to changes quickly, while mitigating risk and ensuring data integrity.

Tell us a little about your organization
​Founded in 2015, Alpha CCO  is a flexible and easy-to-use SaaS platform for automating and operationalizing Governance, Risk and Compliance activities.  It offers:
  • greater transparency in the design and application of internal controls

  • reduction in the risks associated with non-compliance
The platform has been designed specifically to meet the GRC needs of fund managers and members of the executive suite, who need a better understanding of their risk exposure.  It is also perfectly suited to meet broader and generic compliance needs, such as compliance with IT security standards, and governance related to social and environmental issues.

Meet Mike Muckley, account executive, Global Relay

​
​Tell us a little about your organization and why you got into this space.
Global Relay is the leading provider of compliance archiving, surveillance, eDiscovery and analytics solutions to the global financial services industry and other highly regulated industries. Founded in 1999 to capitalize on the shift to electronic communications and the growing need to store electronic data, our company saw a huge demand for our archiving services after the accounting scandals in the U.S. in 2003, when new rules mandated financial firms to preserve all their business records – electronic communications included. Since then, we’ve been helping financial firms capture their data for compliance recordkeeping and supervision.


​Who are your clients and what types of regulatory challenges are they facing?
We specialize in a single vertical market: the global financial services industry. Our customers include 22 of the top 25 global banks, 70% of U.S. broker-dealers, 70% of North American hedge funds, and most of the major U.S. exchanges. The finance industry is subject to stringent recordkeeping and supervision regulations (such as IIROC, U.S. SEC and FINRA Rules). It is also governed by regulations designed to protect customer data and privacy (GDPR, CCPA) and increase trade transparency and prevent market abuse (MiFID II). We help financial firms address these and other regulatory challenges.
 
What type of emerging technology do you think will have the greatest impact on your business/industry?
Analytics, data visualization, AI and Machine Learning are some of the current or emerging technologies that will impact our industry and customers the most. Used as part of a broader supervision/surveillance program, these technologies enable compliance managers to perform more rigorous, critical and targeted evaluations of employee conduct and business activity through their archived communications. While analytics and data visualization can expose anomalies and trends in messages, AI and Machine Learning-aided supervision can help reduce false positives and increase message-flagging accuracy.
 
Why did you join the CRTA? How do you think the CRTA will help your business?
We believe our CRTA membership will allow us to learn from the experiences of other organizations serving regulated industries in Canada. We also hope to be able share best practices with companies serving not only the finance sector, but also health care, government and public companies.
