New Value-added Service offers approved broker members access to real-time trading analytics for risk monitoring, toxic flow identification, and stronger internal controls.
The Financial Commission, a leading independent, non-governmental self-regulatory organization and external dispute resolution (EDR) forum, announces today that Tapaas has joined its Value-added Services program, expanding the range of technology solutions available to approved broker members and supporting the organization’s broader focus on transparency, evidence-based dispute resolution, and market integrity.
Tapaas provides a SaaS platform for real-time risk management, trading analytics, and broker intelligence for FX and CFD firms. The platform helps brokers monitor trading activity, assess execution and liquidity data, identify unusual trading patterns, and improve visibility across dealing, risk, compliance, and operations functions.
A key benefit for Financial Commission broker members is Tapaas’s ability to help identify trading patterns that indicate toxic flow, potentially abusive trading behaviour, latency arbitrage, abnormal client activity, or other activity that could raise market integrity concerns. The firm’s systems cover around a third of all global CFD volumes, and over the last decade, Tapaas has logged millions of accounts with evidence of abuse. By giving firms better real-time visibility beyond just their own data, Tapaas supports more informed decision-making, stronger internal controls, and clearer documentation around trading activity. Broker members of the Financial Commission can use these reports for evidence on record.
The partnership reflects a shared commitment to supporting a healthier and more transparent trading environment. As markets become faster and more technologically complex, brokers require better tools to understand trading behaviour, detect unusual patterns, and maintain fair and orderly trading conditions for all participants.
The Financial Commission’s dispute resolution work is based on neutrality, transparency, and a balanced review of evidence. In disputes involving execution quality, trade cancellations, account actions, or allegations of abusive trading, reliable data and structured analysis can be critical to understanding what occurred. Tools that improve monitoring, reporting, and analysis can support this process by helping firms preserve relevant information, review activity in a structured way, and respond to issues with greater clarity.
Tapaas’s platform is designed to consolidate trading, execution, liquidity, and client behaviour data into a single real-time environment. This allows dealing desk, risk, compliance, and operations teams to monitor exposure, execution quality, client behaviour, book performance, and trading patterns that may create risk or market integrity concerns.
By improving visibility into these areas, Tapaas supports brokers in identifying risks earlier, documenting activity more effectively, and maintaining stronger internal controls. The goal is not only to help firms manage risk, but also to contribute to a more transparent, fair, and sustainable trading industry.
Through this partnership, Tapaas will be listed as an official Value-added Service provider for Financial Commission broker members. Approved members will be eligible to receive a special incentive when signing up for Tapaas through the Financial Commission’s member benefits program.
Nikolai Isayev, COO of the Financial Commission, commented on the partnership: “The Financial Commission welcomes Tapaas to its Value-added Services program as part of its broader effort to support transparency, fair dispute resolution, and market integrity. Real-time trading analytics can help broker members better understand trading activity, identify risks, and maintain stronger internal controls in an increasingly complex trading environment.”
Tapaas’ CEO, Jon Squires, added that: “The Financial Commission’s work has been invaluable in a sector which is growing quickly and globally. We are happy to support their objectives for a fairer, more transparent ecosystem for both brokers and traders alike.”

About The Financial Commission
The Financial Commission is an independent external dispute resolution (EDR) forum for consumers/traders who are unable to resolve disputes directly with their financial services providers who are members of the Financial Commission. The Financial Commission initially set out to provide a new approach for traders and brokers alike to resolve any issues that arise in the course of trading electronic markets, such as Foreign Exchange, and then expanded into CFDs and related derivatives, in addition to certifying technology platforms used for trading.
In addition to its dispute resolution services, the Financial Commission provides approved members with access to a range of membership benefits, certifications, and value-added services through its network of industry partners.
