Date 27/04/2016

SIFMA today released the following statement from Randy Snook, executive vice president, business policies and practices, after the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued for comment a proposed National Market System (NMS) Plan for the Consolidated Audit Trail (CAT):   

“SIFMA members support the concept of a consolidated audit trail given its potential to enhance the quality of data provided to regulators and promote fair and equitable markets. The CAT will be a critical industry utility, and it should be designed to operate efficiently and comprehensively.  A true collaboration among all market stakeholders will be vital to an effective CAT, especially as we consider the security and technology considerations that have arisen since the SEC proposed the CAT."
