LightPoint Enterprise

This solution is intended for quant funds and larger hedge funds and family offices that have a mix of home-grown and packaged technologies that they wish to consolidate.  Our operations support and engineering teams work with these clients to develop an implementation strategy that addresses the most painful operational issues of these firms first, followed by subsequent releases that continue to further their consolidation efforts. This type of solution is designed to eliminate glue-ware and redundant systems which will reduce costs, improve efficiencies and decrease operational risks. To do this we take parts of our POEMS product and integrate it tightly with the firms application infrastructure, turning off pieces of the legacy infrastructure over time. This process utilizes our API’s and may also involve custom development work and interfacing. If required, the solution can be enhanced with the addition of our valuation server, investor accounting and business analytics platform.
