The new technology is targeting super funds as they increasingly look to ‘in-source’ investment allocations in the face of increased returns and cost pressures, according to APAC managing director Marianne Azer.
“There is increasing demand from Australian superannuation funds, of all sizes and complexity, for enterprise technology to manage the day-to-day parameters of asset allocation and to effectively model, monitor and transact in near real time,” Ms Azer said.
“Most solutions cannot fully support the increasingly complex product and multi-portfolio fund of fund structure and complex product-driven asset allocation decision-making activities – from modeling, pre-trade compliance, cash forecasting to performance.’

The solution targets what has historically been a "fragmented, manual, time-consuming process," with a recent study by Milestone Group finding that most institutional investors globally still lack the enterprise technology capabilities to adopt complex investment strategies.
More than 80 percent of the 47 institutional investors surveyed confirmed that fund investment strategies are becoming increasingly complex to manage.
"This is yet another example of the flexibility that a process- and data-driven platform can bring to market, and our commitment to working with customers across multiple geographies to solve common problems at scale." We have developed and advanced these capabilities in partnership with some of the world's leading asset managers," said Executive Chairman Jeff Hodge.
