UK-based Liontrust Asset Management (LionTrust), the specialist fund management company, has extended its mandate with SS&C Technologies (SS&C), following LionTrust’s recent acquisition of Majedie Asset Management.
As part of the extended mandate, Liontrust will now use SS&C’s Eze Investment Suite to help manage the majority of its £38.5 billion in assets under management and advice.
Liontrust, which was launched in 1995, has been using Eze Investment Suite’s advanced order and execution management capabilities to support its operations since 2016.
More than 20 users will transition onto Eze Investment Suite following the acquisition.
Ross Carmichael, chief technology officer at LionTrust, says: “We are pleased to extend our relationship with SS&C to accommodate the growth in our business. Eze Investment Suite allows us to seamlessly scale as our business grows. In addition, SS&C’s team provided expert support during onboarding, ensuring a smooth transition.”
Michael Hutner, general manager of SS&C Eze, comments: “We are excited to support Liontrust with the latest expansion of their business. Liontrust has grown significantly since they first came on board six years ago. We look forward to continuing to support their growth initiatives with the latest technology advancements and expert service.”
