OS IN FINANCE WEBINAR SERIES WITH JUXT - ACCELERATED AS-OF REPORTING WITHOUT THE HASSLE: MODERN DATABASES, BITEMPORAL DATA, AND XTDB

December 11, 2024, 11am ET / 4pm GMT
Zoom

Join us for an exclusive webinar on December 11th at 11am ET / 4pm GMT hosted by FINOS member, JUXT.

Accelerated As-Of Reporting Without The Hassle: Modern Databases, Bitemporal Data, and XTDB

Tech leaders in banking and financial services know that generating "as-of" reports can be a headache. From end-of-day client reporting and real-time post-trade systems to middle-office platforms for structured products — delayed, fragmented data is more than a regulatory risk; it can cost billions in lost revenue.

The good news is that as-of-reporting is a solved problem with bitemporal data systems. The catch? Bitemporal systems are complex to implement and tough to maintain.

This webinar will explore how open source database technology can help financial services build robust, cost-effective bitemporal systems in a cloud-native environment. We’ll cover the basics, review the latest advances, and highlight the pitfalls of different approaches.

Speaker: 

Jeremy Taylor, Head of Product, JUXT 


Jeremy is the Head of Product at JUXT where he is responsible for XTDB, an open source bitemporal SQL database. JUXT is a Grid Dynamics Company based in the UK, specializing in providing software engineering services for financial systems.

COLING 2025 REGULATIONS CHALLENGE

September 15, 2024 - January 20, 2025
Abu Dhabi, UAE (workshop)

The Regulations Challenge invites participants to push the boundaries of Large Language Models (LLMs) in understanding, interpreting, and applying regulatory knowledge within the finance industry. Through nine tasks, participants will explore key topics, such as regulatory complexity, ethical considerations, domain-specific terminology, industry standards, and interpretability. This challenge is open to students, researchers, and practitioners passionate about finance and LLMs. Participants are encouraged to develop solutions that enhance the ability of LLMs to address the complexities of financial regulations and industry standards.
