Automated Takeover Panel Disclosure software
Stay compliant with takeover panel rules: monitor ownership during takeover and offer periods, detect disclosure triggers automatically, and generate regulator-ready filings across UK and global takeover regimes..
AQMetrics’ Takeover Panel Disclosure software continuously tracks positions in issuers subject to takeover (or merger) rules and activity and automatically identifies disclosure obligations across jurisdictions.
By aggregating ownership across entities, applying local threshold rules and guiding workflow and reporting, firms replace spreadsheets with a controlled, auditable process and confidently meet next-day or short-notice deadlines, whether filing to the UK Takeover Panel or other global authorities.

Automatically monitor holdings against takeover period disclosure thresholds (e.g., Rule 8 in the UK and equivalent global requirements).
Outcome: never miss a time-sensitive disclosure trigger.
Automated aggregation across funds, mandates and affiliates
Consolidate positions across funds, accounts and connected persons to calculate true economic exposure.
Outcome: accurate group-level ownership and reduced hidden breach risk.
Guided workflow and approvals
Collaborate across compliance, trading and legal teams to review positions, prepare disclosures and manage approvals in one controlled environment.
Outcome: faster preparation with full accountability and auditability
Regulator-ready output generation
Generate pre-populated disclosure forms and export submission-ready reports aligned to each regulator’s format.
Outcome: reduced manual formatting and fewer filing errors.
