7WFIC Outcome
- High marks from attendees and a financial success
- Keep roundtable and biennial format
- Greater focus on industry action and issue
resolution - More balance too US centric
- Beyond equities more on fixed income,
derivatives, corporate actions, analytics,
non-real time data - Top areas for follow-up (in order)
- Symbology and instrument identification standards
- Billing standards and streamlining administration
(VRXML implementation) - Even more focus on requirements of customers
- A working data structure/model (MDDL
implementation) - Reference data standards
- Data normalization and quality assurance
8Market Data Business Management
9Business Issues Agenda
- Protect intellectual property rights
- Rationalize and reduce the cost of administration
- Simplify and automate market data procurement
- Improve the accuracy and efficiency of reporting,
billing and inventory reconciliation - Address the policies and procedures related to
market data usage to promote global electronic
commerce
10Summary of FISD Billing Strategy
- Practical recommendations based on the results of
the FISD workshop - Payment processing before procurement
- Three fundamental objectives
- Simplify reporting (formats and requirements)
- Promote data consistency
- Simplify and rationalize business rules
- Progress will be incremental and administrative
processes are interrelated
11FISD Billing Strategy
- VRXML to become the global standard reporting
format (exchanges and vendors) - Standardize data elements into the VRXML glossary
- Precision, transparency and consistency
- Standard naming conventions are needed
- Controlled vocabularies can be supported
- Document all reporting validation rules
- VRXML schema has validation rules
- Promotes (but does not require) greater
uniformity - Business rules repository under consideration
12FISD Billing Strategy
- Modify VRXML as the global invoicing standard
- Exchanges as well as vendors
- Automatically map to inventory to simplify
reconciliation - Synchronize reporting cycles
- Eliminate confusion about what the invoice
represents - Users want - monthly, in arrears, uniform snap
date - Significant commercial and operational obstacles
to overcome - Strategy has been verified by FISD members
13Status of VRXML
- Adoption is better than expected!
- Eight exchanges are taking a serious look
- Six vendors are in the process of reporting to
NYSE - Five investment banks are working on direct
reporting - Three inventory system providers can generate
VRXML reports - IPUG meeting in last week London
- VRXML mapping and implementation assistance by
FISD and Gemini (Fast Track) - VRXML - standard management
- Glossary Committee being formed
- Change management procedures being defined
- FISD is registration agency and maintenance
authority
14Next Steps
- Electronic invoices
- VRXML reports from both exchanges and vendors
- Common format for mapping into inventory systems
for easier reconciliation - Flowchart of where VRXML can be used throughout
the administration cycle is needed - Standardization of billing and reporting cycles
- Much more difficult than VRXML implementation
- Cycles are linked to internal systems and
processes - Strong business case to vendors is needed
15Next Steps
- Lots of interest in direct reporting and billing
- The procurement side of the equation
- Account set up and authorization
- Contractual issues
- Standard naming conventions
- Market data business issues are heating up
- Data usage policies (redistribution and derived
works) - Subscriber and click on agreements
- Units of count and multiple access fees
- Enterprise licensing
16Market Data Usage and Redistribution
17Redistribution Roundtable
- Top issue development of policies, procedures
and business models related to distribution and
usage - Top challenge - controlling market data
redistribution in datafeed environments - Shared objective protect intellectual property
rights and promote widespread (legitimate) data
redistribution
18Whats the Problem
- Vendors dont have control over downstream
redistribution in datafeed environments - Policies are complex with lots of varieties
- Compliance is covered by contracts that are open
to interpretation - Compliance involved many people that dont always
know about or understand the practical side of
market data rules
19Goals of Roundtable
- Define the categories of redistribution(financial
institutions, web sites, electronic trading
engines, derived data) - Clarify the issues (contractual/licensing,
communication and compliance, entitlement
control, business models) - Identify the path forward (define the areas of
common interest between information producers,
distributors and consumers and prioritize the
range of practical industry responses)
20Securities Processing Automation
21Securities Administration Strategy
- Provide a mechanism for coordination and a common
global voice on the information infrastructure
requirements for STP - Make sure FISD members have a strong and well
coordinated voice in all relevant standards
setting discussions - Ensure that the MDDL specification and vocabulary
are comprehensive for all asset classes and
technical applications - Coordinate and ensure MDDL compatibility with all
other major XML initiatives (particularly the
15022 Data Field Dictionary)
22Securities Administration Agenda
- Reduce the information-related costs associated
with global trade processing automation - Address the requirements for unique and precise
instrument identification (front and back
office) - Define the legal and business identification
requirements to improve post-execution trade
processing capabilities - Establish common names, values and relationships
for all data used throughout the financial
information lifecycle to promote reference data
transparency and interoperability - Establish a standard XML format for efficient and
extensible data exchange (static and dynamic)

24How to Move an Industry
- Definition of issue (is it clearly defined?)
- Agreement among participants (do we have buy-in?)
- Strategy and metrics (is there a shared view on
how to solve that are operationally/commercially
viable?) - Alignment of interests (do we have agreement
among involved parties?) - Implementation management (can we herd the cats?)
25Status of UII
- Requirements have been defined and validated by
the industry - The London Stock Exchange is adjusting and
extending SEDOL to meet the requirements - The ANNA Service Bureau is adding OPOL and Place
of Trade data to the ISIN feed (so the rumor
goes) - There are ongoing rumors about the potential
commercialization of RIC codes - Are multiple approaches to addressing the
challenges of multiple listings a problem?
26Status of IBEI
- Defining the interrelationships between legal
entities, issuers and products are needed to help
firms manage risk and meet regulatory obligations - There is no standard identification scheme for
legal entities - Distinction between a standard identifier and how
it gets used to understand business entity
hierarchies - ISO TC68/SC4 has established Working Group 8 to
create a standard identifier - Is this practical and realistic?
- The standard becomes a building block -- but some
entity must assign the number and maintain the
standard - Whats wrong with DUNS Numbers?
27Status of LEI
- International standard identifiers linking legal
entities, issues, funds and counterparties are
needed - Two identification challenges
- Identification of legal entities (limited
universe) - Identification of funds (private pools of money)
- Multiple applications
- Account set-up (scope of entities you do business
with) - Transactions processing (counterparty
communication) - Trade allocation and settlement (electronic
allocation via FIX) - Regulatory compliance (KYC and AML procedures)
- Operational risk (group entities to assess
exposure Basel II)
28Status of LEI
- Business entity relationships are critical
- Discussions are underway but industry consensus
on problems to solve does not exist - The business case is missing (anecdotal)
- STP makes this more important (not enough current
pain) - Multiple relationships complicate the issue
- OMGEO Alert and SID
- Trade Web
- ISO WG8 (IBEI)
- FIX 4.4
- Crosswalk (SP/Telekurs/DB)
29Data Model and Vocabulary
- Standard information architecture is the
foundation of reference data management - Common data format makes processing more
efficient (reduce the cost of data translation
and normalization) - Common understanding of financial instrument
attributes are needed (terms, definitions and
relationships) - Market Data Definition language (data elements
required to setup and price securities)
30ISO Working Group 11
- Data model and vocabulary
- Define the business model and relationships
- Define the messaging requirements
- Generate physical message formats
- Central repository for all terms, definitions and
relationships - Compatible with 15022 2nd edition
31Market Data Definition Language (MDDL)
- James Hartley
- FISD Chief Technologies
- MDDL Architect
32Symbology Roundtable
- Twin objectives of cost containment and risk
mitigation - Symbology means precise, consistent and
transparent identification - Vendor codes for information retrieval
- Ticker symbols for listed instruments
- Numbering schemes for trade processing
- Legal entities for account management and
regulatory reporting - Roundtable goal determine whats required to
streamline the processing of transactions from
trade execution to settlement?
