Recent Trends in Market Surveillance - The Brazilian
Case
2
Evolution and trends of Capital Markets
The capital market has undergone enormous changes:
• Electronic communication networks
• Great number of complex orders
• Growth in trade volumes and cross border settlements
• New products – advanced derivatives products
• New practices – trading strategies
• New market structures (new venues. fragmentation)
• Systematic Internalization (SI)
• Competition/Fragmentation
• Lack of transparency
As a consequence...
“Recent market developments and advances in technology have allowed market participants to engage in a wider array of abusive market conduct that undermines investor confidence and financial stability”
K. Alexander – university of Cambridge”
Surveillance methods need to keep up with these changes
3
Trends and Impacts
• Big Data powering surveillance technology
• Changing trading behavior and patterns
• Dark pools growing to market-threatening proportions (1/3
American Market)
• Growing need for near real-time surveillance
• Increased use of order-level surveillance to counter new trading
strategies
• Emergence of cross-asset class, cross-market surveillance to detect
subtle market abuse
• Cross-communication channel surveillance acting as an extended
arm of market surveillance
• Emergence of cloud computing for capital market participants
4
Challenges to market surveillance – Categories
Structural and organizational issues
• Technological - storage capacity and processing (speed)
• Skills - ability/intelligence (qualified human resources)
• Jurisdiction and Cooperation (cross border trade)
• Increasing costs
Informational issues
• Aggregation of multiple trading platforms data
• Data quality and format issues
• Lack of a uniform entity identifier standard
• Large unstructured data volumes (handling)
5
Peculiarities of the Brazilian Securities Market
• Concentration of liquidity in a single market (equities and derivatives)
• Systematic Internalization - not allowed
• Final beneficiary identification (beneficial owner)
• HFT (16% cash and 17% derivatives)
Problems arising from Impacts/Solution

data aggregation, consolidated tape)Currently nonexistent
