Our middle office outsourcing solution provides mid-market asset managers and start-ups with sophisticated technology via an integrated set of portfolio management tools based on an ASP (Application Service Provision) model.

This solution is fully compatible with the Portfolio Management Service  and the Execution and Dealing Services and can be organized as a bundle.
