This partnership follows a successful Proof of Concept that demonstrated the transformative impact of ATHENA in streamlining investment data operations.
We believe our selection of ICS will help differentiate Bennelong via new services and ATHENA will play a critical role in the enablement and running services at scale.
Brian Ó Marnáin, Head of Investment Operations at Bennelong, stated: "We are committed to innovation that delivers tangible benefits to our investment teams and clients. Our decision to partner with the team at ICS was based on ATHENA’s ability to streamline key operational processes, reducing overall operational risk and allowing the Investment Operations team to scale efficiently as Bennelong continues to expand."
The implementation of ATHENA means we can:
- establish a single source of truth for investment data
- enhance data integration across custodian, market data vendors and other vendor platforms
- automate key functions such as investment reporting, risk analytics, reconciliations, and compliance monitoring and
- support future scalability and the launch of new products and services with a modern, cloud-native infrastructure.
By partnering with ICS, Bennelong joins a growing number of investment firms recognising the need for modern, cloud-native solutions to manage increasingly complex data challenges. As the industry evolves, investment managers are seeking greater automation, scalability and efficiency in their operations. This collaboration reinforces the importance of transforming investment data management to drive better insights, stronger governance and long-term success.
