A multi-asset investment specialist has recently announced significant updates that impact introducing brokers (IBs) utilizing its OpenAPI. These modifications pertain to several specific endpoints essential for sign-up processes.
The affected endpoints include:
– POST cm/v1/signups
– GET cm/v1/signups/options (which will be discontinued)
– GET cm/v2/signups/options
In conjunction with enhancing its risk model, the company is expanding the Nature of Business (NOB) categorization. This upgrade introduces new possible values for NOB and necessitates that each NOB value is categorized appropriately. Moreover, both the NOB value and its category must be clearly presented to the end user.
It is crucial for all users to be aware that this requirement will come into effect on December 1, 2025. The company has already rolled out the necessary changes, including the new mapping logic related to the cm/v2/options endpoint and the newly introduced NatureOfBusinessWithCategory property on the cm/v1/signups endpoint. As a precaution, it is advised that integration of these updates begins well before the enforcement date.
Post-deadline, the legacy cm/v1/options endpoint that lacks the parent property mapping logic will be removed entirely.
For those seeking additional information regarding these changes, more details are made available through the company’s developer resources.
