Boston, January 10, 2019 – Despite being a non-profit-generating tool, surveillance technology has become a necessary area of investment to at least some degree for most financial industry firms. It’s also the largest area of compliance budget allocation for firms across financial industry segments, and surveillance technology implementation choices can hold serious sway with regulators during a firm evaluation or audit.

Leveraging the Aite Impact Matrix (AIM), a proprietary Aite Group vendor assessment framework, this Impact Report evaluates the overall competitive position of 12 vendors, focusing on vendor stability, client strength, product features, and client services. Recognizing specific vendors for their strengths in critical areas, the AIM framework in this report offers a detailed analysis of the following nine vendors: BAE Systems, b-next, Intellect Design, London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG; MillenniumIT), Nasdaq (Smarts Trader Surveillance and Smarts Market Surveillance), NICE Actimize (Markets Surveillance Suite), OneMarketData (OneTick), Datawatch (Panopticon), and SIA S.p.A. This report also profiles FIS Protegent, Scila, and Trillium (Surveyor).
