Scottish investment manager Martin Currie, which has around 12 (US$20) billion in assets under management, has completed the implementation of LatentZero’s front-office suite, Capstone.
Capstone consists of Tesseract, LatentZero’s decision support and order generation application; Minerva, its order management and trading system; and Sentinel, its pre and post trade compliance application. Latent Zero says that, by having all three products working together in real time, Martin Currie will achieve higher rates of automation and more effective pre- and post-trade compliance.
“The implementation processes itself was made as smooth as possible as experts from LatentZero were on hand to help at every stage,” explains Grant Suttie, Technical Programme Manager at Martin Currie. “The Capstone elements work well together and LatentZero’s open and flexible architecture means that they also integrate effectively with other systems across the business. So we are feeling the benefits of running one highly functional, integrated platform across our front office.”
Paul Charie, Director of Client Services at LatentZero, adds that Capstone’s architecture made it easier to integrate into existing front, middle and back office systems.
