Financial Services
Banks, broker-dealers, insurers, and market infrastructure operate under examiners who do not accept ‘we believed we were compliant’. Quartz produces the record that compliance is operating.
Regulatory context
The platform's controls map cleanly to the obligations your second-line teams already report on. Quartz does not replace your control environment — it provides the evidence.
Requirements 7, 8, and 10 on access control, identification, and logging are addressed by per-resource policy, MFA, and the tamper-evident audit chain.
Access change records, segregation of duties, and reviewer attestations land in an evidence trail your auditors can verify cryptographically.
Risk-based access decisions on customer data resources, with continuous re-evaluation when device or session posture changes.
Multi-factor authentication, continuous monitoring, and recordkeeping for access to nonpublic information are configured by default.
Recordkeeping requirements for access to books and records covered by the audit log's retention controls.
Logical access and authentication controls aligned with the Information Security and Authentication and Access Controls booklets.
Where it lands first
Tightly scoped, time-bound access to order entry, settlement, and market data platforms — with every action chained into the audit record.
Onboard external counsel, auditors, and vendors with single-use invitations and per-engagement expiry. No standing accounts.
Per-business-unit access boundaries within the same platform, so a retail team and a wealth team never share visibility into the other's records.
Produce the exact access history an examiner asks for, with cryptographic verification that the log has not been altered.
