Prestigious Awards Program Recognizes Outstanding Financial Technology Products and Companies

Charles River Development, a State Street Company (NYSE:STT), today announced that its Charles River Investment Management Solution (Charles River IMS) has been selected as winner of the “Best Trading Platform” award in the fifth annual FinTech Breakthrough Awards program conducted by FinTech Breakthrough, an independent market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies and products in the global FinTech market today. Charles River Development was a winner in last year’s awards program, having been recognized for “Best Wealth Management Platform”.

Charles River IMS combines Order and Execution Management on a single platform, integrated with data, FIX connectivity and trade analytics. The solution allows traders to automate trade execution strategies, find liquidity, execute trades across all asset classes and currencies, and ensure compliance from one blotter.

Additionally, Charles River IMS enables investment firms and wealth managers to eliminate the multiple interfaces, fragmented workflows and order staging problems inherent with separate order and execution management platforms. By combining OMS and EMS (OEMS) capabilities, the solution streamlines workflows and improves communication between portfolio managers and traders. Multi-asset order and execution management capabilities also improve trade execution and provide access to more than 1200 liquidity providers including brokers, broker algorithms, and ECN’s.

“Charles River IMS is a powerful platform, supporting the full range of financial products, from asset class-specific to solution oriented, and complex multi-asset products, including derivatives,” said James Johnson, Managing Director, FinTech Breakthrough. “This represents a true FinTech breakthrough and we’re proud to be able to award Charles River Development with our ‘Best Trading Platform’ award in the 2021 FinTech Breakthrough Awards program.”

The FinTech Breakthrough Awards is the premier awards program founded to recognize the FinTech innovators, leaders and visionaries from around the world in a range of categories, including Digital Banking, Personal Finance, Lending, Payments, Investments, RegTech, InsurTech and many more. The 2021 FinTech Breakthrough Award program attracted more than 3,850 nominations from across the globe.

“Investment managers are challenged by growing complexity, resulting in fragmented workflows and lost productivity. Our global solution provides traders with a single, consistent interface for trading equities, fixed income, derivatives, futures and FX,” said Michael Beattie, Director of Product Strategy, Charles River Development. “We are thrilled to be recognized for our multi-asset trading platform in the 2021 FinTech Breakthrough Awards program.”
