Taskize Partners with Global Relay to Transform Financial Services Comms Archiving

WHY THIS MATTERS

The strategic integration between investment operations collaboration platform Taskize and compliant archiving leader Global Relay, announced on June 9, 2026, targets the high-stakes world of pre- and post-trade operation compliance. The global capital markets are racing against a tightening regulatory clock. Most notably, the European Union and the United Kingdom are finalizing their systemic transition to a compressed T+1 settlement cycle set for October 2027.

Under a traditional T+2 regime, operations teams at prime brokerages, asset managers, and clearinghouses had a comfortable 48-hour buffer to manually chase down trade breaks, settle unmatched allocations, and handle corporate actions over unmonitored legacy communication channels. T+1 cuts that operational window in half, requiring trade discrepancies to be diagnosed and resolved almost instantly.

Taskize, the leading investment operations collaboration platform and Euroclear-owned fintech, has partnered with Global Relay – an innovative provider of integrated digital communications and mobile compliance solutions for highly regulated industries – to bring structured, secure, and fully auditable API-based archiving capabilities to Taskize users.  

By using the Global Relay Open Connector API to archive communications, Taskize has transformed the way its clients use its platform’s ‘Taskize Bubbles’ – shared resolution spaces for cross-firm collaboration – via the added ability to securely record all transcripts, metadata, participants, attachments, and system events.  

As regulations change and markets evolve – including Europe’s upcoming move to T+1 in October 2027 – this integration ensures that operational processes remain both safe and efficient. Additionally, the integration provides tamper-proof recordkeeping and unified searchability across all communications channels.  

Anthony Crespy, Senior Vice President of Business Development at Global Relay, explained, “Our API-driven approach to structured data archiving complements Taskize’s strategy perfectly. Through this partnership, we not only offer customers the confidence that their communications meet the highest compliance standards but also significantly reduce the operational burden associated with regulatory recordkeeping.” 

Diederik Geeraerts, CEO of Taskize, adds, “Amid an evolving cross-jurisdictional regulatory environment, operational teams in financial services need total assurance. By partnering with Global Relay, Taskize can capture all interactions in line with regulatory requirements. It’s the latest example of how Taskize is helping firms transition into a digital- and AI-first landscape.”

Taskize is turning regulatory oversight into a core asset for post-trade productivity. In capital markets, archiving data cannot simply mean dumping raw text logs into a storage bucket; compliance officers and AI-driven surveillance tools require highly structured, contextual metadata to efficiently filter out false-positive market manipulation risks.

By integrating the Global Relay Open Connector API, Taskize systematically captures every layer of interaction occurring inside a Taskize Bubble.
