Desjardins Asset Management, the investment management specialist of Desjardins Group, has implemented Eagle Investment Systems data management solutions on the Eagle ACCESS platform.
Eagle’s data management platform was selected to provide a foundation for future integration of Desjardins Asset Management’s other applications and business needs.
“Eagle’s innovative technology and continued investment in research and development are reasons we selected Eagle, says Gregory Chrispin, COO of Desjardins Asset Management. A significant aspect of this decision was based on our collaboration with Eagle to support its build out of IFRS. Our previous technology was not current with IFRS or the instrument coverage necessary to grow our business, so it was important for Desjardins Asset Management to move onto a new data management platform and investment accounting solution.”
Mal Cullen, head of Eagle’s Canadian Operations and Eagle ACCESS, adds: “We are seeing significant interest from firms both in Canada and globally that are seeking systems to improve their operational efficiency and workflow by implementing a single integrated asset management platform, rather than working with systems that require multiple integration points and interfaces.
Desjardins Asset Management, a Canadian cooperative financial group, is the sixth largest in the world.
