Work Experience
Sapient, July 2012 To Present
Senior Associate Platform Level 2 - ANZ
Developing Trade Surveillance System(TSS) to encompass process and technology
that detect trading rule violations in both pre and post-trade system. TSS is
built out along the three dimensions of data, detection, and disposition. TSS
incorporates data analytics, data management, and the use of statistical
modeling to build and optimize scorecards, rules, and similar fraud systems. TSS
seeks to eliminate breaches of policies and internal controls by creating a
system that allows for proactive analysis of data, consistent escalation paths,
and streamlined disposition systems.
ANZ have become increasingly aggressive in mitigating trading activities that
undermine confidence. As a result, new expectations by ANZ for proactive trade
surveillance has gained increased attention especially as ANZ seek to eliminate
breaches of internal controls and policies that lead to unlawful trading
activities. Given the increased regulatory focus from recent market events, a
forward-thinking strategy with an emphasis on preventative modeling has been
developed which focus on providing transparency, efficiency, and oversight in
ANZ trading.
The main focus of TSS is to prevent market abuse and market manipulation, which
can severely damage a ANZ's reputation. Since the financial crisis, one of the
many efforts by regulators to improve market transparency and investor
confidence has been to improve trade surveillance. We have developed TSS to
perform trade surveillance by monitoring the trading activities of employees in
order to identify potential violations such as insider or speculative trading.
Most trade surveillance efforts have focused on post-trade surveillance methods
and pre-trade surveillance methods such as behavioral analysis and pattern
recognition to identify potential violations before they occur. Pre-trade
surveillance programs are employed to validate trade instructions, ensure
trading thresholds are not breached, and prevent trades being conducted on
restricted instruments. Post-trade surveillance can monitor for front-running,
suitability, best-execution and regulatory transaction reporting. TSS
capabilities focus on both pre and post-trade surveillance through the
streamlining of internal business processes and the deployment of control points
and actions to implement, such as:
Robust reporting structure that generates standardized reports for applicable
regulatory requirements.
Effective workflow management through a dashboard that provides customizable
summary graphs and reports that represent the surveillance activities.
System enhancements that will provide access of full historical trading data for
all listed instruments. The enhancements can provide transparency in to the
entire process of trading surveillance.
Extensive business rules engine that can detect and capture market manipulation
and rogue trading activities.
Alert thresholds adjustments designed to minimize the number of false positives.
TSS is scalable in addressing the following:
Customizing surveillance tools.
Addressing global emerging regulatory reforms.
Performing forensic analysis to identify high risk areas and test what-if
scenarios.
Reviewing alerts regarding instances of market abuse or manipulation.
Determining data required and the appropriate format. This can provide
consistency and minimizes costs. Data assessment can be done for both pre and
post-trade surveillance.
While working on this project, I was responsible for:
Understanding the ANZ Trading products and processes and in recognizing
deficiencies or improvement opportunities.
Developing the program by understanding the priorities of these modules and by
ensuring that the program meets the needs of the business
Providing status updates on the progress of the program.
Developing best practice methodologies and approaches to business problems.
Participating and leading cross-regional conference calls.

Senior Associate Platform Level 2 - Northern Trust
Developing Compliance Management and Reporting System (CMRS) on Cloud to
facilitate portfolio reconciliation to our Client. CMRS allows firms to collate
vast amounts of data from disparate systems, apply reporting eligibility logic,
translate it into the destination message format, and deliver it directly to
Swap Data Repositories (SDRs) such as The Depository Trust & Clearing
Corporation (DTCC). In accordance with Dodd-Frank and EMIR requirements,
portfolio reconciliation is a critical tool for managing risk. We have met
client demand with new functionality that allows firms to leverage CMRS in order
to alert users to changes in given portfolios by comparing descriptions of the
portfolio content provided by each participant.
CMRS establishes a common enterprise platform to manage and publish reporting
requirements to various regulatory agencies. It enables customers to configure
reporting rules, manage varied data sources, apply filtering, exception and
aggregation rules and configure destination reports in the required format. It
also allows clients to trace and track data being reported throughout the
compliance reporting lifecycle, providing much needed visibility into compliance
positions at any point in time.
Trade reporting for swaps is proving to be a challenge with multiple SDRs and
confusion over who should assume responsibility for reporting a trade, Solutions
that help reduce report complexity will be welcomed by an industry grappling
with multiple new compliance pressures. Dodd-Frank and EMIR rules require swap
dealers and major swap participants to adhere to certain standards for the
timely and accurate confirmation of swap transactions and for the reconciliation
and compression of swap portfolios. Confirmation, portfolio reconciliation, and
portfolio compression have been recognized as important post-trade processing
mechanisms for mitigating risk and improving operational efficiency.
The additional functionality of portfolio reconciliation is a natural extension
of the CMRS platform and is essential given heightened global regulatory
pressures and a more complex market model where some derivatives trades will be
centrally cleared while others remain bilaterally traded, CMRS enables our
clients to further centralize their external communications and compliance
efforts to achieve a single view of their compliance status combined with a
streamlined method for identifying trades to be reported and translating data
from multiple sources into the format required by each of the different
regulators.
