Octopus Investments has successfully gone live with CYMBA Technology’s Athena IMS for portfolio management, compliance, order management and trading.

The aim of CYMBA Athena’s integration with the Octopus Investments Operations platform is to enable straight through processing of all orders and ensure a fully compliant, audited, accurate and efficient workflow process.
Oliver Hugh-Jones, Head of Sales at CYMBA, said “Extending the use of the Cymba Athena IMS platform to the multi-manager team has given Octopus real operational and functional advantages. Cymba Athena gives Octopus immediate first move advantage and allows it to maintain its lead position in the highly competitive multi-manager space. We look forward to continuing our close working relationship with Octopus Investments.”
