  • A very insightful session that went beyond the rules to explain how MiFIR transaction reporting is viewed from a regulatory perspective. The trainer’s direct experience at the FCA brought a level of credibility and insight that is hard to replicate, and the practical guidance has been useful in strengthening our overall reporting framework.

  • Qomply’s Governance and Oversight training was very valuable in clarifying governance responsibilities under MiFIR transaction reporting. Delivered by a former FCA regulator, it provided practical insight into regulatory expectations, oversight and senior management accountability, and has been helpful in strengthening our internal governance arrangements.
