We operate a comprehensive compliance programme which includes advisory, risk assessment, monitoring, surveillance and on-going training, targeted to the risks associated with XTX’s operations. We also manage interactions with our regulators in each jurisdiction, striving for pro-active engagement which is open, cooperative and collaborative. I really enjoy the diverse nature of the work which touches all aspects of XTX business: advising the XTX businesses on regulatory and exchange rule requirements, conferring upon and approving proposed controls frameworks, monitoring the on-going business and controls and reporting to XTX management on the effectiveness of XTX’s control environment. Together we deploy our collective knowledge and judgement to advise our colleagues on the regulatory and compliance requirements that impact XTX. The Compliance team have diverse backgrounds which include experience working in financial markets as practitioners in regulation, trading, technology, governance, decisional science and, of course, compliance. The Compliance Department at XTX is a global function which is integrated with XTX’s businesses, and includes experienced team members based in each XTX trading entity. The work is intellectually challenging, often ground breaking, and we operate in a highly collaborative and fast-paced environment, working closely with all departments and senior management to achieve the firm’s objectives. XTX is at the forefront of the technological innovation occurring in financial markets which means that we also need to be innovative, commercial and practical in the advice that we provide. We have a very diverse range of work and responsibilities including documenting agreements with all external counterparties, overseeing the governance and management of all XTX group corporate entities, assisting with the interpretation and implementation of upcoming regulation and legislation, due diligence and execution of investments by XTX Ventures, representing XTX on various industry working groups and advising the business on all manner of legal queries. The Legal Department is responsible for managing and mitigating XTX’s legal risk and is closely integrated with the business. One moment there could be market risks to manage during stressed market conditions, the next there could be a post trade analysis task to further optimise our trading set up on a particular venue or the next moment we could be liaising with senior management, trading developers or the operations team to keep the business running smoothly around the clock. What do I most enjoy about my role? It’s the exciting and fast-paced setting combined with our wide-ranging responsibilities. We also have a focus on improving the monitoring and analytic tools that are scaleable and highly automated which in turn enables us to supervise our trading of tens of thousands of instruments on multiple markets in real-time. We closely monitor real world events and their impacts on markets and our strategies. Our team oversees XTX’s automated trading across all asset classes globally ensuring that our systems are operating as expected and we continue to provide quality liquidity into the markets and for our clients.
