In order to ensure a fair and effective market, trade surveillance aims to examine trading activities in cases where evidence of market abuse is identified, e.g., insider trading or manipulation. Market abuse surveillance specifically targets practices that distort prices or mislead investors. This critical oversight function employs advanced technology to monitor real-time data and historical trends.
Trade surveillance involves the monitoring of trading activities. This monitoring will be for the purposes of detecting any cases of market abuse. In addition, it contributes to preventing this abuse from taking place.
Take note of a 2022 FINRA case where an online brokerage was penalised for ineffective trade surveillance. It lacked comprehensive risk analyses critical for identifying gaps in detecting market abuse risks (MAR). As part of safeguarding against such failures, conduct regular evaluations of your firm's procedures, exploring alternatives if necessary to stay ahead.
