MiFIR post-trade reporting with APA of Deutsche Boerse

MiFIR is a EU regulation and requires investment firms to publish transactions in financial instruments which are traded outside of a trading venue. We will support a Back Office system vendor to establish a FIX interface with the APA service of Deutsche Boerse Group with respect to bonds and shares. The vendor is building the interface for a German private bank located in Duesseldorf. We are responsible to deliver a functional specification on the basis of a business requirements document of the bank. This is only a small project, but we intend to build a strategic partnership with the vendor. A big thank you to Joachim Schauff who has established the contact and who is acting as beneficiary with respect to all business activity with the vendor.
