Skyline goes live with CYMBA

3 Nov 2011
Skyline Capital Management has gone live with CYMBA’s Athena IMS for portfolio management, compliance, order management and trading.

“CYMBA clearly demonstrated a functionally rich and flexible platform suited to our needs together with a dynamic and knowledgeable implementation team," said Andrew Brown, COO of Skyline. "A pre-trade compliance engine was essential for our UCITS fund and we found the Athena compliance workflow to be very intuitive, allowing us to quickly set up new rules and mandates as well as maintain existing ones."

Skyline also selcted CYMBA because it offered an  opportunity for development work to continue to enhance the system for the long-term.  

“The tight timeframe clearly proved CYMBA’s ability to deliver cutting edge technology and industry leading functionality solutions on time and on budget," said Oliver Hugh-Jones, head of sales at CYMBA.
