Tuesday, October 29, 2013
Opalesque Industry Update - TORA, a provider of advanced trading technology and financial services, has announced the introduction of enhanced short sale compliance functionality in TORA Compass™ to help buy-side firms adapt to upcoming revisions to short sale regulations by the Japanese Financial Services Agency. The new rules become effective on November 5.

The change to the rules also comes at a time when volumes in Japan have increased, so it is crucial that clients have a real-time solution to navigate a crucial change in the market, which we are delivering through the compliance engine of TORA Compass™,” said Chris Jenkins, Asia-Pacific Managing Director at TORA.
