How a transaction reporting system can simplify your EMIR reporting processes

In today’s financial landscape, regulatory compliance is non-negotiable. The European Market Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR) imposes stringent reporting requirements on financial institutions engaged in derivative contracts. These demands for transparency and risk mitigation have only intensified with the introduction of EMIR Refit this year. Navigating these regulatory complexities demands operational efficiency and accuracy, which is where eflow’s TZTR Transaction Reporting solution steps in.

TZTR has been specifically designed to enable financial institutions to effectively manage their EMIR reporting obligations. By consolidating all reporting activities into a single, integrated digital platform, eflow’s transaction reporting solution offers a robust solution to navigate the complexities of EMIR compliance seamlessly.

How TZTR simplifies your EMIR reporting processes

eflow’s transaction reporting system TZTR has been engineered with a clear objective in mind - to streamline and automate as much of the EMIR reporting process as possible.

Through automated data collation, the system gathers and enriches the data required for the 203 mandatory fields stipulated under EMIR Refit. By cross-referencing your trade data with market data gathered from more than 250 sources, TZTR significantly enhances your data’s accuracy ready for reporting.

The system then generates the ‘regulator-ready’ reports, using advanced error handling and real-time validation capabilities, before automatically submitting them to the relevant Trade Repository in line with regulatory requirements. TZTR also automatically generates a complete digital audit trail of every action taken, which supports compliance audits and internal reviews.

By utilising rigorous process automation and managing data from a centralised digital hub, the risk of reporting errors is greatly reduced and the reporting of vital management information is simplified, driving operational efficiency.

eflow’s TZTR platform is the preferred solution for financial institutions looking to streamline their EMIR reporting processes for several reasons.
