NEW YORK, Jan. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Eventus, a leading provider of comprehensive, at-scale trade surveillance software, today announced robust global growth in 2023 and a strong outlook for 2024 as the firm aims to redefine trade surveillance with client-driven solutions and customizable technology.
CEO Travis Schwab reflected on the company’s strategic growth and client-focused initiatives in 2023, emphasizing the team’s dedication to enhancing client experiences through flexibility, automation, efficiency and expertise.
He said: “After year over year of triple-digit growth, we took a moment in 2023 to reflect on our expanding client base and challenge ourselves on how we can ensure we meet their future needs. Our focus was on refining our offerings and enhancing our capabilities. This proactive approach, coupled with our commitment to flexibility and efficiency, is why clients consistently choose Eventus over traditional providers.”
The firm signed three tier-1 global banks in 2023 that will be using its Validus trade surveillance platform for multiple asset classes and use cases. Eventus also built further on its dominant position in the futures markets.
The company experienced notable diversification in its global client base in 2023, with almost 50% of revenue originating from outside the U.S., indicating strong growth in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) and Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) regions. The APAC growth was reflected in Eventus’ strategic expansion in Tokyo and major new clients in Japan and Australia. The firm’s Algo Monitoring application, tailored to meet the requirements of the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID) II and its Regulatory Technical Standard (RTS) 6, has been an important growth driver in the EMEA region, Schwab said.
The firm covers all asset classes and financial market client types, including exchanges and trading venues. Despite industry challenges in the digital assets sector in early 2023, Eventus continued to see robust demand for Validus.
Schwab said: “Our digital asset clients are at the forefront of the industry, particularly with the launch of margined futures and spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in 2024. Eventus is uniquely positioned to support our clients’ growth as they incorporate these offerings into their platforms and expand their businesses to multiple asset classes.”
Schwab said Eventus remains true to its founding principle that compliance software should be adaptable and user-centric. “In 2023, our Product team focused on equipping Validus with advanced tools to ensure it continues to provide the flexibility and scalability needed as our clients and their needs grow.”
Joe Schifano, Global Head of Regulatory Affairs, commented on the industry’s shift away from stagnant legacy systems. “Surveillance leaders are increasingly frustrated with the lack of innovation in their legacy systems. We anticipate a conservative yet significant revolution in surveillance techniques, moving away from the outdated ‘one-size-fits-all’ mantra. It’s not working.”
In the fall of 2023, Eventus released a new user interface, enhancing clients’ ability to gain faster surveillance insights and streamline their management processes. The engineering team is also developing a cutting-edge streaming platform to handle high-throughput data streams, facilitating real-time and batch processing scenarios, while offering high performant, reliable and fault-tolerant data ingestion and storage. The in-memory processing will allow clients to perform faster data analytics and computation, providing the ability to make data-driven decisions.
Martina Rejsjo, Director of Product Strategy, said: “Our latest architecture is designed for rapid evolution with new features like cross-product capability, dynamic parameterization and behavioral analysis, and it also enables our Services team to efficiently create tailored solutions by asset class and jurisdiction in line with our clients’ specific needs.”
Jeff Bell, President and COO, highlighted the unique value of Eventus’ Services team. “Our commitment to providing precisely the level of service each client requires sets us apart. In 2023, we added our Regulatory Solutions team, comprising in-house experts from top-tier banks and exchanges, to develop custom procedures and reports as well as build automations, ensuring our clients stay ahead of risks and seize new business opportunities.”
Looking forward, Eventus will continue leveraging development efforts and strategic partnerships. In addition to continued focus on its core trade surveillance and algo monitoring offerings, it plans to explore avenues of growth in areas such as transaction monitoring, additional fixed income coverage and expanded use of AI technologies.
“Validus will remain a product designed by practitioners and shaped by our clients, for the most effective and accurate risk mitigation,” Schwab said.
Other Eventus achievements in 2023 included earning a System and Organization Controls (SOC) 2® Type 2 certification demonstrating the suitability of the design and operating effectiveness of its controls. In addition, Eventus has now captured nearly 40 global and regional awards and honors since 2018, adding seven in 2023 alone.
Eventus provides state-of-the-art, at-scale trade surveillance software across all lines of defense. Its powerful, award-winning Validus platform is easy to deploy, customize and operate across equities, options, futures, foreign exchange (FX), fixed income and digital asset markets. Validus is proven in the most complex, high-volume, and real time environments of Eventus’ rapidly growing client base, including tier-1 banks, broker-dealers, futures commission merchants (FCMs), proprietary trading groups, market centers, buy-side institutions, energy and commodity trading firms, and regulators. Clients rely on the platform, coupled with the firm’s responsive support and product development, to overcome its most pressing trade surveillance regulatory challenges.

Bybit Expands Global Reach, Receives Formal Consent for Full Authorization in Kazakhstan
![bybit-expands-global-reach,-receives-formal-consent-for-full-authorization-in-kazakhstan](https://thefintechbuzz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/54692-bybit-expands-global-reach-receives-formal-consent-for-full-authorization-in-kazakhstan.jpg)
DUBAI, UAE, Sept. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, is excited to announce it’s among the first to be granted consent to a full authorization by the Astana Financial Service Authority (AFSA). This milestone brings Bybit closer to becoming a fully regulated Digital Asset Trading Facility (DATF).
As part of a rigorous process, Bybit Kazakhstan has passed a full AML check, business conduct audit, and detailed compliance inspections. This is part of Bybit’s focus on securing new user opportunities in Kazakhstan and the broader Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) region.
“Kazakhstan has become a key player in the global crypto ecosystem, and we are thrilled to be expanding our services in such a dynamic market,” said Ben Zhou, co-founder and CEO of Bybit. “We are committed to bringing our cutting-edge technology, security, and transparency to crypto traders in Kazakhstan, ensuring they can access the best possible tools and services to thrive in this fast-growing industry.”
Once the full license is in place, Bybit Kazakhstan will offer various digital assets related products and services. The expansion into Kazakhstan aligns with Bybit’s mission to provide reliable and transparent services, catering to the unique needs of crypto traders and investors in the region.
This development follows Bybit’s receipt of its initial operating and custody licenses from AFSA in June 2023, reinforcing its commitment to local regulatory requirements. Bybit’s ongoing efforts to strengthen its presence in Kazakhstan underscore its belief in responsible growth and ensuring a compliant and secure trading environment.
Kazakhstan has quickly emerged as a hub for crypto innovation, and Bybit is proud to play a leading role in fostering this development. For example, Bybit hosted a “Foundations of Blockchain, Web3 and Crypto Exchange Activities” course for Banks of Kazakhstan in 2024. This event was part of Bybit’s drive to make blockchain education more accessible in the CIS region.
By securing this full authorization, Bybit is poised to enhance crypto adoption, provide institutional-grade security, and offer advanced trading features to its growing regional user base.

Integrum ESG and CSRHub enable fund managers to monitor both long-term trends and short-term movements in ESG ratings for companies, across a 10-year time series
![integrum-esg-and-csrhub-enable-fund-managers-to-monitor-both-long-term-trends-and-short-term-movements-in-esg-ratings-for-companies,-across-a-10-year-time-series](https://thefintechbuzz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/54686-integrum-esg-and-csrhub-enable-fund-managers-to-monitor-both-long-term-trends-and-short-term-movements-in-esg-ratings-for-companies-across-a-10-year-time-series.png)
LONDON, Sept. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Integrum ESG, the leading alternative ESG data provider, has today announced the launch of their Consensus ESG Ratings module.
Just as investors monitor movements in consensus earnings estimates or credit ratings, investors now are aware of the demand for the ability to monitor long-term trends and short-term movements in consensus ESG ratings.
This new feature enables Integrum ESG’s asset manager clients to now see the consensus ESG score for any company, either as an absolute rating or a relative percentile ranking, across a 10-year time series.
These scores will indicate to any investor what the capital markets have ‘priced in’ for a company’s ESG performance, allowing users to quickly understand the market’s view on a company and easily conduct relative ESG analysis on the positions they hold within their Portfolio.
This regularly updated data is provided by CSRHub, the world’s leading provider of consensus ESG ratings. CSRHub has spent years aggregating and normalising a vast range of licensed sources – from large ESG ratings firms such as MSCI, ISS, S&P Global, and Sustainalytics to specialists such as CDP and Better World Companies.
Shai Hill, Founder and CEO of Integrum ESG, commented: “Many investors have told us they want a sense of ‘what is priced in’ in terms of a company’s ESG performance, so they can compare this to what anyone ESG ratings firm is saying. CSRHub is the only firm to have credibly achieved this, thanks to a model refined over years and a vast data lake – so we are delighted to be partnering with them.”
Bahar Gidwani, Co-Founder of CSRHub, added: “Investors need to fine tune their ESG-related investment strategies to improve their returns and better match the preferences of their clients. Combining CSRHub’s expert outside-in, consensus view of ESG with Integrum ESG’s detailed real-time data stream provides a strong solution for these needs.”

Their Platform allows clients to dissect ESG scores, real-time sentiment, and more with a variety of unique-to-market features, empowering industry professionals and investors and giving them complete oversight of ESG risk across their portfolio.
