(PRWEB) April 17, 2005 -- In the financial world where the delivery of
superior customer service is vital to the competitive standing of asset
managers, efficiency matters. More customers, increased transactions, ramped up
compliance requirements, an abundance of innovative investment vehicles, and the
need for real-time research and reporting: These multiple requirements are part
of an investment management firm’s daily operations. “Failing to manage them can
be deadly,” says Sanjay Bery, a solution partner at BusinessEdge Solutions Inc.,
an industry-focused business and technology consulting firm offering operational
strategy, business process and system integration solutions to clients in the
financial services and insurance industries.
Mr. Bery along with Ian
Malone and John Belive, solution partners, and Leslie Arturi, conferences and
speaking programs coordinator, will represent BusinessEdge Solutions at the
Eagle Investment Systems 2005 Users’ Conference, BusinessEdge exhibit (Booth 7),
Sunday, April 17 – Wednesday, April 20, 2005, at the Ritz-Carlton Beach Resort
and Spa in Naples, Florida.
BusinessEdge has extensive experience
delivering large-scale mission critical custom and partner-based solutions to
the leading players in the investment management, wealth management, capital
markets, insurance and banking sectors. Eagle Investment Systems, a leading
global provider of financial technology solutions, serves many of the world's
financial institutions with Web-based solutions that integrate and streamline
the investment process in support of achieving improved business efficiencies at
a lower cost of ownership.
The management of multiple internal systems,
the collection of business analysis that must be dispatched to so many touch
points and the deployment surrounding quality assurance that is run across many
internal systems can spread enterprise data out across “islands of technology,”
Mr. Bery says. “This can create a duplication of effort and data discrepancies –
and ultimately result in a fragmented enterprise view of information.” Mr. Bery
says that considering that in some firms millions of records may be run every
night, this fragmentation may be extremely costly in terms of time, money and
diminished customer satisfaction and underscores the urgency for data
consolidation within the financial services industry.
A combination of an
enterprise wide data architecture that provides structure and control with the
flexibility to blend its components with a client’s in-house system
implementation and methodology and overall strategy, performance and system
planning can help companies to realize a tighter alignment of their internal
systems – and accelerate many aspects of the testing and process
lifecycle.
“Making companies more data centric by storing all their data
in one central hub instead of housing 25 siloed repositories can make all the
difference in how an investment house provides service to its end customer,” Mr.
Bery says.
