Proliferation of Pump & Dump Schemes - Shield

Image
Market control plans alluded to as 'pump and dump' are not new. Truth be told, concerns were being brought up in the US Senate as soon as the 1930s, however what's happening are a portion of the manners by which these false plans are currently being run. Yet, before we dive into the subtleties, we should return to rudiments… . What is a 'Pump and Dump' plot? 'Pump and dump' (additionally alluded to as 'slope and dump') plots basically have two sections. First and foremost, the culprits organize a mission to blow up ('pump') the cost of a stock with bogus or deluding data. Furthermore, when the cost has been misleadingly expanded, the culprits sell their own property ('dump') harvesting the benefits. Obviously, different financial backers eventually become presented to a drop in the market cost because of the deal action. What's more, when the fraudsters stop their market control crusades, the leftover financial backers are left w...

Shield - Read the FCA’s Market Watch

Image
This article begins with a yawn. The mere mention of a regulatory authority's publication or planned set of guidelines triggers a reflexive reaction that sets us up for a snooze fest. Reading them on a regular basis – as they are published – as part of your job's routine best practice sounds about as appealing as a long winter's nap curled up beside a hibernating bear. Thank you, but no! However, that is precisely what each of us in the RegTech industry should be doing. Market Watch is published on a regular basis by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) for a reason: there is always something new to learn. The FCA's acts apply to more than 51,000 financial institutions. With so many rules in place, Market Watch notifications are the only method to effectively communicate changes. The FCA utilises Market Watch to highlight enforcement outcomes, not just as a courtesy — in the form of censored case studies The former makes it appear as if the notification is giving some...

Financial Firms - Electronic Communications Compliance

Image
 We knew it wouldn't be long before regulatory agencies began to exercise their enforcement powers. COVID isn't under control, but after over two years of the pandemic, we've mostly learned to live with it. However, when it comes to their efforts to ramp up Electronic Communications compliance, the authorities appear to be in general agreement. Beware of financial organisations that do not track their employees' messages across all platforms. The authorities are on their way to get you. We already explored the developing storey of social media monitoring . There are murky waters there. There are still no guidelines in place. When it comes to posts made by and on behalf of their company, most organisations have appropriate control and compliance processes in place. Current policies, on the other hand, are grossly inadequate when it comes to outlining what a broker can say and do with their personal accounts on social media. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) a...

Cryptocurrency Craze Among People Be Contained Or Even Regulated

  Bitcoin  Bitcoin appeared on the market on January 12, 2009, with the first transaction awarding a software developer 10 bitcoins. At that time, the combined value of the ten coins was $0. Within two years, the value of each Bitcoin hit $1; today, one bitcoin is valued at ~$55,000. Analysts forecast that a single bitcoin (BTC) could be worth over $100,000 – or even as high as $1,000,000.  It takes about four years to mine 210,000 blocks; that milestone triggers a financial halving.  Why is bitcoin mined? Even though you can’t physically see or touch a BTC, the mining process has an arguably and equally large and negative impact on the environment. Significant resources, including electricity (where the bulk is purportedly fossil fuels versus renewable sources) and water for cooling, are essential for the computing power required to “mine” the bitcoin. At the dawning of the bitcoin era, computer enthusiasts could easily mine it. However, today’s efforts require soph...
