MELBOURNE, Australia--()--Hong Kong’s Value Partners Group is supporting business expansion beyond Asia by automating front-and middle-office activities with the Charles River Investment Management Solution (Charles River IMS). A client since 2015, Value Partners recently went live on Charles River’s Post-Trade solution across its equities, fixed income, FX and derivatives operations. The firm now has a single investment management platform with centralized confirmation, trade matching and settlement instruction capabilities.

“The implementation of Charles River has significantly increased our ability to monitor and control trading activity,” said Tim Bruce, Managing Director of Information Technology, Value Partners. “We are well positioned to increase operational efficiencies, and integrate with other third-party services that we were unable to leverage in the past.”

Charles River automates the post-trade process for Value Partners:

  • Minimizes allocation errors by communicating electronically with brokers
  • Reduces failed trades by automatically matching and confirming blocks and allocations
  • Increases efficiency by routing orders and allocations directly to counterparties in real-time
  • Satisfies regulatory mandates with OTC clearing workflows and audit trails
  • Automatically creates ISO 15022 messages for notifying custodians
  • Matches and affirms local trades with any destination

“Our integrated solution meets the unique needs of local asset managers in Asia-Pacific and worldwide,” said Cameron Field, Managing Director-APAC, Charles River. “We give firms like Value Partners the capabilities and scale to support growth, while reducing operational risks and costs.”
