Distinguished track record<br />Case studies: why clients chose Point Nine<br />Attractive Pricing & Dynamic Management<br />Client: An Equities fund, with US$ 1 billion of Assets Under Management, needed a provider who met their cost criteria but also had substantial operational flexibility to engage with them on a number of sensitive issues prior to finalising the contract.<br />Point Nine: Our partnership management structure allows us to accommodate clients in a nimble, flexible and engaging manner, that was unavailable from our peers, as we demonstrated in winning with this demanding, unconventional project. References available on request.<br />Execution Speed & Complex Products<br />Client: A Blue-chip UK asset manager, established around 1870, with Assets Under Management of close to £100 billion, required a middle office provider to support Alternative Investments Fund which deals in complex products. The client wanted robust and scalable technology that will allow them to grow without increasing manual interventions. Client also needed a solution delivered within three months.<br />Point Nine: A Tier I Investment Bank recommended Point Nine as the only firm capable of meeting specified requirements on schedule. Point Nine delivered services to Alternative Investments Fund in three months at a better price than all the other vendors. References available on request.<br />Non-conventional Product Requests<br />Client: Major Swiss fund, established in 1992, with Assets Under Management over US$ 8 billion, required a solution that allowed them to book and monitor non-conventional assets – specifically real assets. The fund owned various types of real assets in different locations and wished to record all discrete cash-flows in and out of the asset and produce analytics and risk reports similar to those produced for a bond or equity portfolio. <br />Point Nine: After exhausting the options offered by major technology providers, the client turned to Point Nine. We delivered a bespoke, completely automated system, within budget, that ‘exceeded’ their requirements, within the four months. References available on request.<br />Broadest Spectrum of Products<br />Client: A new hedge fund focused upon the trading of loans was set up last year, which required full Loan operations and settlements services. No other major provider was capable of delivering integrated Loan settlements services customised to their detailed requirements. <br />Point Nine: A Bulge-Bracket Bank introduced Point Nine as the only provider capable of delivering a solution. Our technology platform and management experience allowed us to deliver a comprehensive, tailored, loan settlements solution. References available on request.<br />
