Shareholding Disclosure
The right data, constant monitoring, accurate submissions
FundApps Shareholding Disclosure monitors requirements in over 100 jurisdictions for beneficial ownership, short selling and takeover panels.
Global regulators are moving towards zero tolerance and automating the process enables firms to both handle increasing volumes of disclosures while being future-flexible in their ability to comply.
The platform combines a powerful rules engine, a dedicated team of regulatory experts as well as legal information from aosphere, takeover panel lists, ESMA's FIRDS database, SEC's 13F list, FX rates and other regulatory data sources.
How FundApps shareholding disclosure works
Position data is checked against shareholding disclosure, takeover panel and short selling rules enriched with legal, market and regulatory data from Refinitiv and Bloomberg. The rules engine identifies if and where a disclosure is required and to which regulator or regulators in the case of dual listings.

FundApps Shareholding Disclosure Pre-Trade API
Shareholding pre-trade disclosure checks can mean tight deadlines, low thresholds, ETF hard stops, pre-merger notifications and more. Examples that come to mind are European short-selling rules, 12D and HSR and monitoring on a pre-trade basis is often a time-consuming mix of manual workarounds, manual rule coding and cross-checks.
The FundApps Pre-Trade API for Shareholding Disclosure automates all your pre-trade checks, does them in real-time and can aggregate across your whole portfolio.
