CCK Financial Solutions Secures Taiwan Distribution Agreement

Tuesday, May 25th, 2010

CCK Financial Solutions Ltd (CCK), a leading provider of treasury and capital market solutions, today announced it has entered into a distribution agreement with AsiaDecision Information Inc. in Taiwan for Guava Suite, CCK’s treasury management system. AsiaDecision and its associated company AsiaMiner International Co Ltd are specialists in Business Intelligence and Risk Management in Taiwan. AsiaDecision will be responsible for the marketing of the system in Taiwan, and will also build a support and implementation team to support local clients.

Hans Chou, General Manager of AsiaDecision, said “AsiaDecision is excited to work together with CCK to expand the market for Guava in Taiwan. We have already commenced to build a team to not only market but support the product in Taiwan. Currently, many banks in Taiwan need to use one system for their domestic requirements, particularly for domestic fixed income, and another system for international treasury requirements. Guava is able to handle both within the same system, so we have a solution which is able to provide significant improvements to these banks.” Joseph Wong, Managing Director of CCK, said “CCK is very pleased to enter into this distribution agreement with AsiaDecision. We believe that the combination of Guava’s functionality and AsiaDecision’s team of professionals will enable us to provide a good solution to local banks to support both their domestic and international treasury and investment requirements.”

Guava is a fully integrated suite of front to back office treasury and wholesale banking applications, which provides users with effective straight through processing. The suite of products cover dealing (including pricing of financial products, portfolio analysis and deal capture), risk management (including limit management, computation of Value at Risk and compliance reporting) operations (including confirmations and settlement) and accounting.

Iress Signs South African Agreement for XPLAN

Tuesday, June 9th, 2009

IRESS announced today that its South African subsidiary, Spotlight Wealth Management, has entered into a strategic supply agreement with Liberty Holdings for its web-based adviser platform, XPLAN. XPLAN was selected by Liberty after extensive market research both globally and in South Africa, and will be deployed to over 3000 tied and independent advisers. In response to the strong demand from the local market for a web-based solution, XPLAN represents the leverage of IRESS’ global experience and Spotlight’s South African specialisation. XPLAN provides tangible efficiency gains for both the adviser practice as well as large enterprise through ease of use, integration capabilities, compliance features, customisation through configuration, and deployment ease.

“We required an integration-capable solution in order to improve the efficiency and productivity of advisers, their assistants, and head office staff. XPLAN will perform a vital role in delivering our consolidated processes to our distribution force to make it easier to do business with Liberty. XPLAN will form an important component of a broader process that delivers quality, convenience and compliance to both consumers and advisers”, said Stuart Porrill, head of Distribution Technology (Liberty).

This announcement coincides with the completion in July 2009 of the contracted arrangement including earn-out with the Spotlight shareholders and key staff. Spotlight Interactive (RSA) was acquired by IRESS in 2007.
