UCITS Check is a compliance service that helps UCITS investment funds meet the directive's requirements for pre- and post-trade checks on portfolio instruments. The UCITS directive mandates that underlying portfolio constituents must be risk-transparent and liquid. Before acquiring instruments for a fund, you must determine whether they're eligible according to UCITS provisions and CESR guidelines. Our UCITS Check service automates this complex assessment, providing clear eligibility determinations for over 90% of requested instruments, significantly easing compliance workload.
UCITS Check Direct is designed for real-time, ad-hoc eligibility checks on individual instruments during trading. You access it via a graphical user interface and receive immediate eligibility assessments from our 36 million instrument database (updated every 15 minutes) with detailed PDF reports.
UCITS Check Mutations provides daily eligibility monitoring for your entire instrument portfolio, automatically checking holdings and delivering both PDF reports and technical feeds showing eligibility status per instrument.
