Meet the team: Payal Khanna

Payal joined the REGnosys team in June 2022 as a Financial Software Engineer. Here, she talks about her role and helping financial institutions address their regulatory compliance issues.

Tell us a bit about yourself and your role at REGnosys

I am a migrant from Afghanistan and came to the UK seeking refuge. Coming from a war zone country embarking on the journey of freedom and education has helped shape my life immensely. I graduated in Computer Science and worked as a software engineer, building and enhancing products that have helped financial institutions in performing their day-to-day activities within the capital markets and Wealth Management sectors.

As a Financial Software Engineer at REGnosys, I am part of the team developing our Rosetta platform, which helps financial services industry meet their regulatory compliance requirements. As the platform grows in the coming year, we aim to expand its functionality and continue to deliver increasing value.

Why did you choose to work at REGnosys?

I liked their idea of creating a platform to help the financial services industry solve their regulatory reporting challenges. In particular, I wanted to play a role in providing a standardised solution, which industry experts themselves contribute to, reducing the duplication of efforts required in data analyses. The fact that REGnosys is a small start-up gives me a lot of exposure within the financial services industry and I can see myself growing both professionally and personally as part of their team.

A day in the life – what’s your typical working day like?

It’s a hybrid role with two to three days in office and the rest remote. I find there is no such thing as a typical working day the role and duties vary greatly, from training to development and new releases – with many more to come with time.

REGnosys in 5 years – where do you see yourself and the company then?

With major changes ahead in the regulatory space within Europe and worldwide, I see greater heights for both REGnosys and myself

CDM Integration

We do the data mappings for you…

Just extract transaction data from your booking, reporting or any other systems, we handle the rest.
We build mappings in immersion with your tech team, as a packaged +/- 2-day workshop that includes valuable CDM training – and is fun (yes, really)!

… And deliver you a packaged output…

Forget data mapping spreadsheets and forget hard-coded translation buried deep into your code base.
What you get is a transparent, maintainable CDM translation dictionary, automatically packaged into an API to translate your internal trade messages.

… Which you can start using right away

Start using the API for testing right away. For production deployment, we offer a range of hosting options that adapt to your technology stack.
The application grows with you. Just edit your dictionary to connect more and more systems to CDM.

Data Modelling

Take an existing data pipeline of any form…

Just choose among your existing business processes to experiment a model-driven approach in +/- 2 days.​
We can start from any kind of artefact, from XML messages down to Excel or even PDF documents.

… To demonstrate the model-driven approach…

Our team of data engineering experts works in immersion with you and guide the process from start to finish.​
Our promise: some executable data pipeline running based on your model by the end of the workshop.

… Which you can deploy within your organisation

All it takes is a cross-functional team of developers and non-developers, who is open to a fresh (and fun!) approach.​
The buck doesn’t stop there. That team is now empowered to carry that project forward and build model-based pipelines for your organisation.

Reporting Audit

First, map your data into CDM...

We have it covered it. All it takes is a +/- 2-day immersion workshop with your tech team to build your mappings.
As a by-product, you get a ready-to-use API to convert all your trade data

… And access your audit results on-line…

Once your trade data have been mapped, our reporting engine compares its output to your reports and analyses any discrepancy.
Analysis is developed within 6 weeks and results published into a web application.

… Through a powerful user interface

Forget static audit reports that end-up on a shelf.
Our reporting engine is available on-demand to reconcile your reporting process end-to-end and down to single trade flow, through a fully interactive interface.

Model-Driven Regulation

Bring-on the regulatory text…

Can be anything in your existing corpus, as long as it’s digestible and relatively self-contained.
The target is to deconstruct that text and reconstruct a model of the regulation in +/- 2 days.

… We’ll handle the rest…

Our team of regulatory and engineering experts works in immersion with you and guide the process from start to finish.
Our promise: some executable code running by the end of the workshop, delivered to you and ready for demonstration.

… And you’re ready to develop rules on your own

All it takes is a cross-functional team, ideally all-encompassing from policy to technology, who is open to a fresh (and fun!) approach.
The buck doesn’t stop there. Your team is now empowered to carry that project forward inside your organisation.
