SEI Introduces SEI Data Cloud

Solution to Provide Clients with Real-time Data and Analytics, Powered by Snowflake

OAKS, Pa., Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- SEI® (NASDAQ:SEIC) today announced the launch of SEI Data Cloud through a strategic partnership with Snowflake, the Data Cloud company, to address the financial services industry's demand for more advanced data integration. SEI Data Cloud, Powered by Snowflake, is designed to offer a scalable, cloud-based data platform that clients globally can access directly through the SEI Wealth Platform^SM (SWP) or as a standalone service.

SEI Data Cloud seeks to meet the industry demand for more advanced data integration, as financial and technology organizations increasingly need database-like access to power analytics, application development, consumption of large amounts of data, and advanced reporting.

SEI Data Cloud users have access to modern delivery capabilities, including:

• On-demand access to real-time data
• Business event-based alerts and notifications
• Ease of information consumption
• Analytics-as-a-Service (AaaS)

SEI plans to initially leverage Snowflake as a data delivery and analytics platform for SWP clients, providing users access to information in real time and enabling an enterprise view of information. SEI already has two early adopters of SEI Data Cloud and is engaging with multiple clients to roll out the solution.

Ultimately, the company intends to offer enterprise information delivery, reporting, and analytics capabilities to all clients across the financial services spectrum. This represents SEI's commitment to enhancing its offerings and delivering new solutions that enable clients to power their businesses and drive revenue growth for the company.

Sanjay Sharma, Head of Private Banking at SEI, said:

By leveraging Snowflake's data-sharing capabilities, we believe we can provide our clients access to customized data and analytics reporting at any time and in a manner that complements our modern API approach. We're thrilled to partner with Snowflake in delivering this transformative technology to our markets."
