Last year, we announced the launch of a new feature: Room-In-A-Name (RIAN), part of our Shareholding Disclosure Service.
For years, shareholding disclosure calculations have been done manually by compliance professionals.
As described in a previous blog, France (Article L. 233-7), Belgium (Law 02-05-2007) and other countries around the world have legal frameworks that allow issuers to impose additional and often stricter disclosure thresholds than those set out in the statutory regimes.
One of the most frequent questions we receive from firms interested in a shareholding and short-selling disclosure service goes something like:
"How can we quickly find all of the evidence showing that we’re in compliance with disclosure obligations for a specific company or on a given date?"

In this series, one of FundApps’ dedicated compliance experts covers a regulatory issue. This week, we have Ben Richards, Compliance Analyst at FundApps, writing about the impact of multi-level derivatives on shareholding disclosure.
In many jurisdictions, financial derivatives must be included in determining how much exposure a holder has in an issuer - somewhat surprising when considering the term “Shareholding Disclosure”. These derivatives don’t always have to give the holder the actual right to own the underlying shares to be included in the calculation - simply financial exposure to an issuer may be reportable. Conceptually, a holder could have over 100% exposure to an issuer, through a mix of direct holdings of a security and cash-settled financial derivatives.
We'd like to wish all our friends, family, customers & business partners a very merry Christmas and a healthy & happy 2016.
