FIA Tech, a provider of technology and data solutions for the global futures industry, has announced that it will bring FIA Tech’s Foreign Security Futures and 871(m) compliance analytics to the Nasdaq Custom Basket Futures offering.
This strategic partnership will enable buy side and sell side clients to perform pre-trade regulatory and tax risk checks, delivering execution and operational efficiencies from trade inception.
Nasdaq’s Custom Basket Futures allow investors to create futures contracts based on customised equity baskets drawn from a broad universe of US and European securities.
Developed in response to growing demand for flexible, capital-efficient global equity exposure, the solution provides standardised contracts traded on a regulated non-US futures exchange combining customisation with the benefits of listed derivatives.
By embedding FIA Tech’s analytics directly into this workflow, clients gain immediate visibility into key US regulatory considerations, including Foreign Security Futures classifications and 871(m) tax implications.
Market participants will benefit from day-one regulatory clarity, helping reduce operational risk, avoid costly remediation, and improve compliance with requirements from the Internal Revenue Service, Commodity Futures Trading Commission, and US Securities Exchange Commission.
