Arcesium and Confluence Partner to Deliver Efficiencies for the Buyside

NEW YORK, June 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Arcesium, a leading global financial technology firm, and Confluence, a leading global technology solutions provider for the investment management industry, today announced a partnership to deliver an integrated data management and analytics solution for middle/back-office operations for asset managers, built to bring workflow efficiency in performance, risk, and regulatory reporting.

The offering will integrate Confluence's StatPro Analytics solution, comprising performance, attribution, risk, GIPS, and other investment analytics, with Arcesium's Financial Data Stack modules and cloud-native data management platform, Aquata™.

Managing data has become increasingly difficult and expensive for firms, requiring several vendor relationships to cover all aspects of the investment process. The new offering is available as a technology solution or a fully managed service, engineered to allow asset managers to consolidate vendors and lower the total cost of ownership.

"This partnership brings together the shared vision, strengths, and expertise of both companies to drive efficiency and enhance customer experiences for institutional asset managers. We are excited about how it will accelerate Arcesium's business growth across the asset manager segment," said David Nable, Head of Client and Partner Development at Arcesium.

"Facing tighter regulations and competition, Asset Managers will benefit from Confluence and Arcesium's new integrated solution with streamlined data management, coupled with powerful performance and risk analytics," said Damian Handzy, Managing Director, Confluence Analytics. "The integration will improve client experience, enabling institutional investors to make better investment decisions."

"We're thrilled to partner with Confluence, a leader in investment management," said Mahesh Narayan, Segment Head for Institutional Asset Managers at Arcesium. "This partnership is designed to enable Arcesium's clients to benefit from Confluence's advanced performance, attribution, risk, GIPS, and other investment analytics to help streamline workflows and improve decision making."
