Buy-Side Firms Lag In Getting Ready For Dodd-Frank - Survey
12 March 2012
Buy-side financial institutions are lagging behind sell-side firms in getting ready for the sweeping reforms on sectors such as over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives enacted in 2010 under the Dodd-Frank Act, says research issued today from IT consultancy Rule Financial. Sell-side firms are making large changes to operations and IT, investing heavily in client execution and clearing propositions that will become operational in 2012 . The buy-side – such as large fund management operations - is taking a different approach, placing a heavy reliance on the sell-side to provide a solution to the problems created by the new regulation, the report, based on answers from 33 respondents, said.
