According to Christer Wennerberg, Head of Market Structure, Orc Group, in a recent statement on the integration, “The new European regulatory requirements translate to a need to collect, standardize, analyze and present massive amounts of data. The challenge lies not only in saving data to comply with market surveillance and audit obligations, but to make it useful and available for clients. This is where Orc can add great value together with OneTick – the obvious first choice for complementing our trading and execution platforms with data management and analytics functionality.”

“We are very pleased to work with Orc to address the requirements for MiFID II compliance, and to support Orc as they build a highly competitive trading solutions offering for the transforming European regulatory landscape. We are confident that the analytics and insight our service provides make OneTick an ideal foundation on which to build surveillance solutions,” added Leonid Frants, founder and principal of OneMarketData in an accompanying statement.

Last week, Orc and CameronTec merged into a singular entity, after Cidron Delfi, a company indirectly controlled by Nordic Capital Fund VII and owner of both Orc Group Holding AB and CameronTec Intressenter Holding AB, combined both companies into a unified group. Previously, CameronTec dealt primarily with financial messaging infrastructure and tools for capital markets, with Orc Group focusing on electronic trading technology.

OneMarketData also made headlines recently after it added Dermot Harriss as its newest Head of Development of its OneTick Market Surveillance Service. Mr. Harriss joined OneMarketData from Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, part of a lengthy career spanning over two decades.
