This is the first Australia-based client for Eventus, which has earned 15 
global awards and honors ( 
https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=3160681-1&h=3296689048&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventussystems.com%2Fcompany%2F%23Awards&a=15+global+awards+and+honors 
) in the past few years and steadily grown its presence around the world, 
including in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. 

Eventus CEO Travis Schwab said: "We are thrilled to welcome Morrison as our 
first client based in Australia and excited to partner with this market leader 
as our firm continues to grow and evolve. We've continued to make strong 
inroads into APAC and expect that we'll see significant growth in Australia and 
other parts of the region in the coming year. Increasingly, firms that have 
been using legacy surveillance platforms are turning to us for the efficiencies 
and flexibility that Validus provides."

Morrison will go live on Validus in July for trade surveillance of the firm's 
activity on the ASX, Chi-X Australia (CXA) and the National Stock Exchange of 
Australia (NSX). The brokerage will deploy the cloud-based version of Validus, 
hosted in real time.

William Slack, Managing Director, Morrison Securities, said: "We see a lot of 
similarities between our two organizations and share a common philosophy with 
Eventus of putting clients first. Its reputation for client service is 
outstanding, and we've had a really good engagement all the way through, from 
our sales representative to senior leaders. We view Eventus as a true partner, 
where we can work closely together to develop what we need and efficiently 
scale our trade surveillance capabilities as we expand onto new exchanges and 
delve more deeply into the markets we're trading.

"We believe the functionality of Validus - particularly the artificial 
intelligence overlay when it comes to alerts - will allow us to be more 
efficient and precise with how we manage the alerts that come through. Under 
our current platform, our compliance staff has so much data to sift through 
each day that it is extremely time consuming to determine which alerts are 
valid and worth pursuing. By introducing machine learning over time in the 
system, we'll cut out the noise and reduce the scope of those alerts 
significantly, which means we'll save a lot of time and really be able to focus 
on what we need to."

Validus uses machine learning and robotic process automation to enable users to 
cast a wide net for detecting relevant market behavior and escalate the most 
actionable alerts for immediate attention. The unique approach enables 
compliance and risk officers to dig more deeply into potential issues and take 
resolution action faster, while accounting for all behavior that might easily 
get overlooked by legacy surveillance methods. Validus also provides a complete 
audit trail of all automations for use in supervisory reviews and regulatory 
inquiries.
