“With its accurate and smooth processing capability, Broadridge’s investment management solution helps us address critical challenges and needs,” said Jimmy Wong, Chief Financial Officer with Optimas Capital. “Broadridge’s investment management solution’s comprehensive ability to handle front- to back-office processing for multiple asset classes on a single platform, and the stability of its Asia-based SSAE16 certified datacentre are real differentiators and save time and costs.”

“We are proud that Optimas recognized the advanced capabilities of Broadridge’s Portfolio Master solution,” commented Askin Leung, Regional Director of Broadridge and General Manager for Hong Kong. “We are excited to deliver a richer straight-through-processing solution to automate front- to back-office processes for every moving part of their portfolio management process. With our advanced order management system, Optimas will experience more robust and extensive order generation and routing capabilities, not just limited to equities.”

Broadridge’s investment management platform was specifically designed to streamline labour-intensive investment management processes by minimizing human touch.

These costs continue to rise as market velocity increases and regulations become stricter.
