Risk, Controls & Regulatory Change
Strengthen oversight and implement regulatory change across the markets business.
Overview
What this means for your business.
Markets controls connect trading activity with execution oversight, surveillance, market and counterparty risk, and regulatory requirements.
Capmark works with business, risk, compliance and technology teams to improve that control environment.
We support risk measurement, surveillance, trading-control implementation and remediation, connecting the requirements with data, systems and operational responsibilities.
What we do
The expertise we bring.
Surveillance is calibrated against the firm's market-abuse risk assessment: scenario coverage mapped to the risks that apply, thresholds tuned at scenario level with documented rationale, and alert review that stands up to inspection. Precision improves the economics of the function as well as its credibility.
Best-execution monitoring that reflects how the desk actually routes and executes, and desk-level controls — limits, price checks, algo controls — with calibration documented and reviewed. Our delivery record includes remediation of eFX trading controls under an enforceable undertaking.
Risk measurement earns its place when the desk uses it: sensitivities and limits that reflect how positions are actually run, counterparty exposure that updates at a useful speed, and reporting that supports decisions. We build the frameworks, the models and the reporting.
Markets regulation is implemented from interpretation to operation: requirements read against your business, changes built into systems and workflow, and evidence produced by the process itself. Our record includes MiFID II implementation across multiple trading venues.
Supervisory findings are closed with a plan the reviewer can follow: root cause, remediation with owners and dates, and evidence assembled as the work is done. We deliver the change itself alongside the evidence of it.
What to expect
A team shaped around the work.
Work starts from your risk assessments, control inventory and any findings on the table, so effort goes to the controls that matter. Calibration decisions are documented as they are made, evidence is produced by the process itself, and the desk is involved throughout so the controls work at trading speed. Where a formal order applies, the plan is built around its milestones and reporting.
Engagements run from a calibration review of a single control to remediation of a full findings portfolio.
