Background

About Jordan Allen

I have several years experience working in Transaction Reporting role for a Tier 1 Investment Bank client, having worked across EMIR, MiFID II, and more recently, SFTR. I have been involved in the controls processes as well as resolving errors from Trade Repositories and reviewing pairing and matching statistics for EMIR + SFTR. My EMIR work ensured a higher pairing and matching status on trades with our client and their counterparties, leading to a consistently high level of matched trades reported to the legal standards. Outside of Transaction Reporting I have worked in the area of Global Front Office Controls, dealing with a number of specific DFA related control functions ensuring our client trades are complying with several regulatory requirements. I have also spent a year working alongside the Compliance department for another Tier 1 Investment Bank client, where my role included performing a review of the breadth of US based financial regulations across all regulators and determining if controls currently existed within the bank to meet the specific regulatory requirement and to match them together and/or escalate instances to senior management where gaps appeared to exist.
