Los Angeles, New York, Toronto [January 10, 2011] InvestTech Systems Consulting, Inc., the leading technology and operations consultants for institutional investment managers, successfully advised and assisted a leading Super Regional Bank with the implementation of a trading and compliance system. InvestTech was involved with implementing Bloomberg’s Asset and Investment Manager (AIM) for fixed income products including Agencies, Corporates, Municipals, Repos, Asset-backed and Mortgage-backed Securities. The bank, with major operations in the U.S., Canada and the U.K., also relied on InvestTech to provide subject matter expertise and guidance on monitoring counterparty credit exposure and compliance on a real-time basis.
InvestTech’s structured implementation approach included a review of the client’s investment and trading workflows, as well as compliance and data integration requirements. InvestTech consultants provided project planning and implementation support including future-state design recommendations for pre- and post-trade compliance rules, business workflow processes and procedures, user access roles conforming to SOX controls, and recommendations for data flow processes.
InvestTech’s successful track record for Order Management System (OMS) implementations can be attributed to their hands-on experience and implementation methodology, industry expertise, and capability to analyze current and future state business needs.
Bennett Kaplan, InvestTech principal commented, “InvestTech’s OMS consultants are among the most skilled and experienced in the industry. Our specialized OMS team has recently been involved in some of the industry’s most significant trading system rollouts. The team’s product-specific knowledge, coupled with their understanding of trade order management workflow and their expertise with data integration, makes InvestTech the sensible choice for OMS implementations and upgrades.”
