    The International Securities Consultancy (ISC) : Streamlined RegTech for a Secure Marketplace

    In today’s immensely complex and volatile trading environment, regulation technology is absolutely essential for governments, regulators and financial organizations to ensure that illegal and unfair situations do not disadvantage investors or destabilize financial systems. To attract investors, capital market regulators must ensure that market practices are fair and that there is a level playing field for all investors. This necessitates practical and sophisticated solutions that can monitor and prevent illegal activities. A pioneer in the RegTech arena, the International Securities Consultancy (ISC) provides trustworthy and up-to-date advice and recommends solutions to facilitate regulatory supervision in the capital market, ensuring safe and secure trading for investors.

    Based in Hong Kong, the company has been a major driving force behind the adoption of advanced RegTech in capital markets, and it has been consistently doing so for the last 30 years. This is a subset of ISC’s overall offerings as a consultancy. “Our value lies in having deep competence, long experience and unrivalled expertise in all aspects of establishing and developing capital markets” “Our value lies in having deep competence, long experience and unrivalled expertise in all aspects of establishing and developing capital markets,” reveals Ms. Connie Tsui, the Operations Manager of ISC. Along with these capabilities, the company is also very experienced in assisting clients on insurance, pensions, banking, debt management, and investment schemes-related issues.

    Clients can protect themselves from the threat of illegal market activity by using market surveillance systems. ISC has deep knowledge and competence in a multitude of commercial regulatory and monitoring solutions and assists clients in procurement, implementation, and testing of the regulatory systems.

    ISC works closely with its clients to prepare detailed specifications for systems that identify potential issues of abuse and illegal trade activities. ISC can carry out a feasibility study to determine whether a current system should be modified, and if so, how, or where it is more cost-effective to purchase a new solution. If the decision is to purchase a new system, ISC assists the clients in the selection of the appropriate systems vendor, specifies system modifications and carries out and supervises all aspects of testing before “go live’. Another important matter is helping the client to draft contracts with the vendor and addressing the many legal nuances involved, including different funding structures.

    ISC negotiates with the vendor on behalf of the client. “Upon engaging with clients, we conduct system testing, quality assurance, and also provide training and operational manuals once the technology is deployed,” affirms Summer Kwok, Analyst at ISC.

    The company’s market supervision services are carried out by consultants who have comprehensive knowledge of regulation technology and its applications. With experience both as market practitioners and regulators, the ISC team has an in-depth understanding of legal requirements and the principles of regulation and of advanced technology and its applications. Leading the company’s technology practices from the forefront is Zulf Mir, ISC’s Executive Director. With experience spanning two decades in this domain, Zulf has been deeply involved in the implementation of multiple RegTech projects for stock exchanges, securities market regulators, and capital market participants at a global level.

    ISC’s capabilities in providing tailored practical solutions to clients’ unique requirements make it the most dependable partner in the marketplace.
