Joey Brown
NAIC Product Owner
Joey joined Clearwater seven years ago and is now a Regulatory Reporting Product Owner at Clearwater. Prior to this role, he spent five years working with large insurance clients in Clearwater’s client services division. He is a qualified product owner, and works with Clearwater’s development teams to continually enhance the solution to ensure clients receive accurate and timely NAIC reporting.
Across the world, governments and regulatory bodies have established investment reporting standards that aim to ensure transparency, facilitate oversight, and maintain market integrity. In recent years, regulatory reporting requirements around ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) concerns have become increasingly popular. Investment regulatory reporting provides detailed information about a company’s financial status, investment activities, risk exposure, and compliance with specific regulatory frameworks. Regulatory reports help organizations mitigate risk and play a significant role in keeping markets fair and protecting the public.
Examples of regulatory reporting standards for investments include SEC disclosures for American public companies, NAIC reporting for American Insurers, Solvency II for European Insurers, and MiFID II for European investment managers. These reports may include detailed information about the value of investments held and their associated risks, trading activity, various investment exposures, and compliance with specific regulatory frameworks.
Clearwater’s investment reporting platform automates data aggregation, data reconciliation, and data validation of each security in our clients’ investment portfolios which allows us to deliver regulatory reporting from a source of truth that is accurate, auditable, and traceable.
Clearwater integrates with downstream systems to provide clean data to our clients’ investment accounting processes. We fully validate and reconcile all the data and provide daily audit-quality data to enable confident decisions for our clients so they can efficiently scale their investment strategies, diversity asset classes, and improve their data management processes.
