Detecting and preventing market abuse | Upcoming A-Team Insight Webinar

| March 25, 2025

Market abuse – unlawful disclosure of inside information, insider trading, circular trading, “pump and dump” schemes, etc. – poses significant threats to the integrity of capital markets.

In 2024, global trading house Trafigura agreed to pay a $55 million fine to the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) for trading with non-public information, manipulating a fuel oil benchmark, and obstructing whistleblower communications and JPMorgan Chase faced a $450 million settlement for data failure violations related to market manipulation.

As regulatory frameworks like the European Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) expand their scope to encompass new markets and behaviours, the imperative for financial institutions to detect and prevent such activities has never been more critical. In this evolving landscape, traditional surveillance methods often fall short, necessitating the adoption of advanced technologies, including generative AI (GenAI).

This webinar will examine the complexities of market abuse and demonstrate how the latest advanced technologies and best practices can augment your organisation’s defences against these threats.

Don’t miss this opportunity to equip yourself with the knowledge and tools necessary to safeguard your organisation against market abuse and regulatory risk. Register now to secure your spot.
