Eventus, a company that provides software to monitor financial trading, has been named the Best Trade Surveillance Solution at the RegTech Insight Awards USA 2025.

It is the third time the firm has received an award in the last two weeks, and its fifth from the same organization in recent years.

The awards, run by A-Team Group, identify technology that helps financial firms comply with industry rules. A shortlist was created with input from an advisory board, and the winners were chosen by a vote among financial institutions.

Angela Wilbraham, Chief Executive of A-Team Group, said it was “good to see a pioneer like Eventus recognized for their achievements.”

The CEO of Eventus, Travis Schwab, said the past year had been significant for the company. He said it had improved its systems, launched a new artificial intelligence product called Frank AI and secured new clients.

A recent industry analysis predicts strong expansion in the global trade surveillance system market, fueled by rising demands for market transparency and regulatory adherence.

Valued at $2.5 billion in 2024, the market is expected to climb to $3 billion in 2025 and further grow to $5.9 billion by 2030, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.5% over the forecast period.

In the meantime, the CFTC is replacing its decades-old surveillance system from the 1990s with a modern solution from Nasdaq, aiming to strengthen its ability to detect and prevent market manipulation and fraud.

This upgrade stems from a commitment made last March by Acting Chairman Caroline D. Pham to modernize the agency’s operations as part of a broader overhaul of its technological infrastructure. The new Nasdaq Market Surveillance platform will equip the regulator with automated alerts and advanced cross-market analytics to improve oversight.
