IBM Debuts Portfolio Management Apps for Private Banks

International Business Machines (IBM) is rolling out two products meant to help private and investment banks improve their processing, trading and portfolio management systems.

The Armonk, N.Y., company will provide a front-office product that integrates a bank's order and portfolio management applications to provide a single view of a client's portfolios. This should eliminate redundant processes, such as multiple order entries or payment orders, IBM said Thursday.

The web-based performance measurement application will help banks calculate and analyze the performance and risk exposure of investment portfolios. It allows banks to look at a portfolio's performance from any start date to any end date within the last two years. The stand-alone application can take data from any external source and integrate it into a management system.
