A new approach to compliance

Position Reporting from Droit translates and processes detailed regulatory
guidelines covering short, long, and takeover obligations from over
100 global jurisdictions.

All content is consolidated and rules are derived from regulatory text,
standardized legal analysis contained in Rulefinder Shareholding Disclosure
from aosphere Limited. This is layered with consensus opinions which are
derived from a consortium of top financial institutions, legal interpretation
(provided by A&O Shearman), and engagement directly with regulators.

Why the need for Droit’s
Position Reporting?

One of the most important challenges faced by financial institutions is meeting the requirements associated with complex, and often ambiguous, global short, long, and takeover reporting regulations.

Managing these obligations can be resource intensive and costly. To solve this effectively, it is vital to implement systematic rules in a way that provides transparency and clarity.

Endoxa is an industry consortium of some of the most sophisticated and complex global financial institutions focused on establishing consensus interpretations to regulatory obligations. These consensus views are then combined with legal interpretation, alongside standardized rulesets, to develop codified decision logic in Droit’s Position Reporting product.
