This involves implementing multiple defensive layers throughout the network like firewalls, routers, intrusion detection, and antivirus software.
- In virtualized and cloud environments, security managers can filter and police traffic at each virtual server to separate and isolate traffic by customer and type. This prevents attacks from impacting host systems and improves efficiency.
- The use of threat intelligence databases that identify dangers on the internet in real-time combined with defensive filtering and blocking at the server level provides an additional layer of security against cyber attacks.
Banks brace for risk data aggregation and reportingMarkit
The world's largest banks face major challenges in implementing the Basel Committee's demanding new principles for risk data aggregation. These new principles could see banks spending much more on new governance in an effort to meet the January 2016 deadline.
The document summarizes key changes made in the 2014 International Swaps and Derivatives Association's (ISDA) credit default swap definitions. The changes aim to address issues highlighted by recent financial institution bailouts. A new "Governmental Intervention" credit event was added to trigger payouts when a financial institution is bailed out by government action. The changes also include provisions for asset package delivery to determine final auction prices and distinguish between senior and subordinated debt triggers. The 2014 definitions represent an industry effort to update rules governing CDS contracts in response to changes in how sovereigns and financial entities experience credit events.
Bank of England's Ragveer Brar's debates prudent valuation challengesMarkit
New rules will set out exactly how banks must adjust valuations of their fair valued financial instruments. Ragveer Brar, who leads the Bank of England's valuation and controls team, gives his expert view on what this means.
In a tight labour market, job-seekers gain bargaining power and leverage it into greater job quality—at least, that’s the conventional wisdom.
Michael, LMIC Economist, presented findings that reveal a weakened relationship between labour market tightness and job quality indicators following the pandemic. Labour market tightness coincided with growth in real wages for only a portion of workers: those in low-wage jobs requiring little education. Several factors—including labour market composition, worker and employer behaviour, and labour market practices—have contributed to the absence of worker benefits. These will be investigated further in future work.
Fabular Frames and the Four Ratio ProblemMajid Iqbal
Digital, interactive art showing the struggle of a society in providing for its present population while also saving planetary resources for future generations. Spread across several frames, the art is actually the rendering of real and speculative data. The stereographic projections change shape in response to prompts and provocations. Visitors interact with the model through speculative statements about how to increase savings across communities, regions, ecosystems and environments. Their fabulations combined with random noise, i.e. factors beyond control, have a dramatic effect on the societal transition. Things get better. Things get worse. The aim is to give visitors a new grasp and feel of the ongoing struggles in democracies around the world.
Stunning art in the small multiples format brings out the spatiotemporal nature of societal transitions, against backdrop issues such as energy, housing, waste, farmland and forest. In each frame we see hopeful and frightful interplays between spending and saving. Problems emerge when one of the two parts of the existential anaglyph rapidly shrinks like Arctic ice, as factors cross thresholds. Ecological wealth and intergenerational equity areFour at stake. Not enough spending could mean economic stress, social unrest and political conflict. Not enough saving and there will be climate breakdown and ‘bankruptcy’. So where does speculative design start and the gambling and betting end? Behind each fabular frame is a four ratio problem. Each ratio reflects the level of sacrifice and self-restraint a society is willing to accept, against promises of prosperity and freedom. Some values seem to stabilise a frame while others cause collapse. Get the ratios right and we can have it all. Get them wrong and things get more desperate.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

MARKIT has launched a new
iBoxx index family to track
contingent convertible (CoCo)
bonds issued by banks in the
wake of new Basel regulations.
The bond index series will
track the performance and
emergent issuance of bank
Additional Tier 1 (AT1) and
Tier 2 (T2) CoCo instruments
in dollars, euros and sterling
with sub-indices for AT1
and T2 capital tiers allowing
more detailed analysis of the
underlying bank CoCo market.
“The growth of CoCos has seen
the notional outstanding tracked
by our new Markit iBoxx CoCo
index family more than double
in less than two years,” said Tim
Sargent, managing director and
global head of indices at Markit.
“We expect this rate of issuance to
continue as banks seek to achieve
their mandated capital goals.”
CoCo issuance has increased
sharply since the beginning of
2013 as banks seek to satisfy
the loss absorbing capital
requirements under Basel
III accords currently being
incorporated into regional
regulatory standards by the
governing bodies of the Basel
Committee members. As of
December 1st, $85 billion
notional of Basel III compliant
CoCos were tracked within
the Markit iBoxx CoCo
indices, almost three times
the $32 billion recorded on
December 31st 2013. The
Markit iBoxx CoCo indices
will be operated in compliance
with the Iosco Principles for
Financial Benchmarks, and
are underpinned by Markit’s
independent bond pricing
service which is based on a
broad set of bond prices received
throughout the trading day
from market participants. The
prices are subject to a series of
rigorous quality controls before
consolidated bid and ask prices
are calculated, used for index
calculation and published
for every bond in the Markit
bond universe, along with a
range of analytical values.

SHORT SELLING positions
disclosed to the European
Securities Markets Authority
(Esma) under new regulations are
to become available on Markit’s
securities finance platform.
Customers can now obtain a
complete view of short interest
which includes global securities
finance trade data reported to
Markit by lenders and borrowers,
alongside public short selling
disclosures. This integrates all
Esma short disclosures into a
single service which covers all
European markets under Esma’s
jurisdiction, including the UK,
Germany, France, Italy and Spain.
Pierre Khemdoudi, director of
securities finance at Markit, said:
“The addition of all European
public short selling disclosures
to our securities finance dataset
will help position Markit as a one
stop shop for customers seeking
a holistic view on all aspects
of short selling and securities
finance.”
The Esma public short selling
disclosure data dates back to
2012 when Esma regulation
(EU) 236/2012 was implemented
requiring public disclosure of
any short position in a European
listed company exceeding 0.5% of
shares outstanding.

IRESS and TORA, financial
technology vendors with a focus
on the Asia Pacific region, have
partnered separately with Markit
to offer Markit’s transaction
cost analysis (TCA) service to
customers.
IRESS, a provider of financial
market, wealth and mortgage
management systems, will
integrate Markit’s TCA into its
order system to enable buyside
and sellside institutions to access
Markit’s analytics.
Kirsty Gross, IRESS managing
director for Australia and New
Zealand, said: “IRESS is excited
to announce this collaboration
with Markit and I believe
their leading pre and post
trade analytics, supported by
independent expertise, will deliver
tangible trading efficiencies to
IRESS clients.”
Meanwhile, TORA has
integrated Markit’s TCA tools
into its Compass system, allowing
clients to see pre trade analytics in
their order blotter. The available
data items include the market
impact cost estimate and the
standard deviation of that estimate,
which shows the expected cost of
implementing the position.
“We are delighted to be able
to extend our existing analytics
with Markit’s market leading pre
trade estimates through TORA’s
Compass Execution and Order
Management system,” said Robert
Dykes, chief executive officer at
TORA.
Brad Hunt, managing director
and head of information in Asia
Pacific at Markit, added: “The
integration of Markit’s TCA tools
with TORA’s trading solutions
will help investors by providing
greater insight for their trading
decisions. The integration of
our tools with IRESS trading
solutions will allow traders to act
on Markit’s insights at the point
of trade to manage the impact of
their trading activity.”
SECURITIES firm Jefferies has
selected Markit to provide its
transaction cost analysis software.
Markit’s TCA platform
offers analytic and decision
support tools to assess the
quality and effectiveness of a
company’s equity and foreign
exchange trading activity. The
platform verifies, compares and
calibrates the performance of
brokers, algorithms and trading
technologies.
Markit is distinguished from
other vendors in that its TCA
platform deploys a more granular
methodology that measures
cost on a fill by fill basis. This
approach allows for an attribution
analysis that identifies the portion
of the trading cost arising from
the trader’s own concession for
liquidity for an institutional size
order versus the cost resulting
from actions of other market
participants.
“Jefferies is partnering with
Markit for its non-biased opinion
about our product along with
innovative and market leading
metrics that will help to enhance
the ongoing improvement of our
offerings,” said Bill Bell, global
head of electronic and program
trading at Jefferies. “Markit’s TCA
platform will augment Jefferies’
inhouse capabilities as we continue
to focus on building great products
and accumulating best in class
liquidity for our clients.”
Other TCA systems focus on
calculating differences between
the ‘arrival price’ and average
execution price of a trade.
“We are excited at the
opportunity to provide Jefferies
with our independent transaction
cost analysis platform and
execution consultancy service,”
said Tom Conigliaro, head of
investment services at Markit.
“Our ability to combine
execution, algorithmic, venue
and order routing evaluation and
analytics will allow Jefferies to
gain actionable insights that help
reduce trading costs, cumulative
price impact and maintain
execution quality for their
clients.”

2014 has been a dominant year
for Markit in enterprise data
management. Markit EDM has
signed over 20 net new sell and
buyside customers this year. In
keeping with its strong reputation
for rapid implementations, the
provider has already completed
a record 19 go-lives across
the US, Europe and Asia.
Spiros Giannaros, managing
director and global head of
EDM at Markit, said, “Markit
EDM in its Cadis days was a
buyside specialist. Two years
on, the benefits of being part
of Markit are clear. We are now
the major player in the EDM
space on both the sell and
buyside. Also, being part of a
larger organisation gives our
customers added confidence.
We have integrated with other
Markit products and services
to deliver packaged solutions
to the marketplace including
Corporate Actions, Analytics,
thinkFolio and WSO. As our
EDM solution evolves, so does
its capabilities. Increasingly
our customers understand that
we solve for any data, not just
reference data. The EDM hub
can process any type of data,
including trades and positions,
across any asset class”.
Regulatory initiatives are one
of the key reasons customers are
looking at our EDM solutions”,
Giannaros added, highlighting
the Basel Committee for
Banking Supervision’s
initiative to improve risk data
aggregation and reporting
among banks. “BCBS 239 is
at the top of the list. Boards
must now have a greater
understanding of risk data
aggregation. Processing speeds
and volumes have increased
exponentially and we have
customers already benefitting
from these improvements.”
Markit EDM has been
recognised by the industry with
three awards in 2014: Banking
Technology’s Reader’s Choice,
