Deal Blotter
A deal blotter is a record or log that tracks all trades and transactions executed by a trader or trading desk over a given period. It typically includes details such as the time of execution, asset traded, price, volume, and counterparty, serving as an audit trail and risk management tool.
Example
“The compliance team reviewed the deal blotter at the end of each day to ensure all trades were properly recorded and met regulatory requirements.”
