Northern Trust has launched research management and investment analysis modules in its Front Office Solutions platform.
The new research management module captures the life-cycle of the entire manager selection process, including contacts, key relationships, quantitative and qualitative data, emails, documents, meeting notes, and calendar entries. A flexible data model allows users to customise views, synchronise workflows, and refine and research rules to tailor the user experience to meet individual research management flows and reporting needs.
The investment analysis module enables investors to evaluate performance and risk measures across prospective, current, or historical investments alongside calculating metrics across any custom investment lens on the fly.
