Regulatory and Accounting Data
Content and Data
Regulation-ready data
As financial regulations increase in number and complexity, firms can no longer prepare for each in isolation. Instead, they need to take a strategic approach to how they acquire and manage their data in order to take advantage of available efficiencies, reduce operational risks, and gain insights that benefit their business beyond regulation.
Data is at the heart of everything Bloomberg does – and so it is with regulation. Our regulatory data solutions, supported by a team of experts, provide firms with the data sets they need to not only satisfy current regulations but also to help prepare for upcoming regulatory requirements.

Accounting regulation
Our accounting regulation data products enable risk and compliance managers, asset managers, insurers, accountants and other financial organizations to navigate the increasingly complex liquidity, regulatory and accounting disclosure environment. To maintain transparency in capital markets, regulators require firms to provide detailed information on their trading systems, trade and valuation reporting, capital plan and accounting approaches. This is mandated globally, from SEC and FINRA in the U.S. to EBA and ESMA in Europe, with regulations including EMIR, AIFMD, Form PF, EBA Prudent Valuation and more.

Compliance
Navigating the increasingly complex maze of global regulatory requirements brings significant data management challenges – putting banks, investments firms, asset managers and other financial institutions at risk of non-compliance. For example, the introduction in recent years of a number of reporting requirements (MiFID II, SFTR, Short-Selling Regulation & more) has dramatically expanded the amount of data that must be captured within the trade workflow. In addition, firms must abide by sanction rules in the jurisdictions where they do business or risk substantial fines. With Brexit set to further complicate the task, firms need automated data feeds to meet their obligations and enhance data quality. Lastly, with the growing importance of Investor Protection, firms need to ensure transparency and verification of data. Bloomberg enables to firms gain control over their compliance data.
