Tick History: Effectively Manage Compliance Requirements in Today’s Fluid Regulatory EnvironmentFundamental Review of the Trading Book

In response to the financial crisis, the Basel Committee released the Fundamental Review of the Trading Book (FRTB) in January 2016. The aim of FRTB is to contribute to a more resilient banking sector by strengthening capital standards for market risk.FRTB, an improved and more risk-sensitive version of the current market risk standards, will be implemented in January 2022. The new regulation aims at ensuring that banks have sufficient capital to withstand stressed market conditions, still be solvent and not require a government bailout. FRTB increases the look-back period and changes the methodology by which banks determine their minimum capital requirements. Banks are now required to look back at a period that covers the Global Financial Crisis.

Tick History, along with other solutions such as Price Reference Data, can help firms comply with current and future regulations.
