Mitsubishi UFJ (MUFJ) has expanded its middle office services to help ease the regulatory pressures faced by its clients.
The services enable fund managers to outsource their middle-office operations, taking advantage of MUFJ’s expertise, and freeing up their own in-house resources to focus on their primary investment objectives.
MUFJ is committed to providing a robust end-to-end fund administration solution to the investment industry.
Its middle office technology is incorporated with the wider custody and find accounting systems. It utilises technology platforms from Omgeo for post-trade transaction management and Advent’s Syncova.
These platforms work together to deliver margin and collateral management, performance measurement and attribution, and risk reporting and aggregation.
Ken McCarney, COO of MUFJ Fund Services said: “As part of the fifth largest bank in the world, we have been able to invest in our middle office services to meet the evolving needs of managers globally. Outsourcing middle office operations is no longer just about cost reduction but leveraging the expertise of a partner that can help fund managers grow in a challenging climate.”
“Fund managers need a partner who can provide the expertise and infrastructure to navigate them through the whole investment cycle. We will continue to invest in our fund administration and wider asset servicing solutions to support the investment industry.”
