“Adoption of AI and Machine Learning for Real-Time Anomaly Detection”
- The Europe Trade Surveillance landscape is rapidly advancing with the integration of AI and machine learning technologies. These systems facilitate the real-time analysis of massive amounts of trade data to detect irregularities, market manipulation, and suspicious behaviors that might otherwise go unnoticed through traditional surveillance methods.
- AI-powered surveillance systems improve detection accuracy by analyzing historical trade data and learning from patterns. This allows these systems to identify complex and subtle trade anomalies, such as insider trading or spoofing, that older, rule-based methods may miss, ensuring more effective and precise market monitoring.
