FCA: Multi-firm review of algorithmic trading controls – high-level observations
FCA has reviewed a sample of principal trading firms in order to assess their compliance with MiFID RT6 and to identify any areas of weakness in firms’ algorithmic control frameworks as well as good practices among algorithmic trading firms. FCA found that most firms it reviewed had a good understanding of their obligations under RTS 6, but there was significant variation in the sophistication of firms and their level of compliance, even taking account of the nature, scale and complexity of their trading activities.
