RELATED TOPICS​

Cape Town-based investment firm, Coronation, has adopted FlexNOW EMS to support its current and future workflow requirements.

FlexNOW, FlexTrade’s one-click install EMS, has been integrated within Coronation’s existing systems architecture remotely, with no overhead to Coronation’s IT department.  Further, many new product enhancements made to support Coronation’s complex workflow are available to the global FlexNOW community.

Philip van der Merwe, Head of Trading at Coronation Fund Managers, says: ’Over the last couple of years, our trading execution needs have changed. We were looking for a partner that was able to increase our workflow efficiency and reduce our costs. FlexNOW has managed to impress us with both. Their desktop features have proven to be solid solutions, and our team is seeing new updates every week. We managed to invest in a product that delivers a powerful user experience while ensuring simplicity and ease of use.”

Adi Prnjavorac, General Manager, FlexNOW at FlexTrade Systems, says: “We are delighted to add another prestigious client such as Coronation to our rapidly growing FlexNOW community. Since the pandemic, we have seen significant demand for our FlexNOW cloud EMS to meet firms’ challenges in this new, changing environment. Further, our institutional client base has also grown by 100 per cent over the past year, validating our offering and demonstrating that organisations recognise the tangible value we can deliver in challenging times.

“From initial discussions to analysis, design and onboarding, the whole process with Coronation has been undertaken virtually, which is a testament to our robust and proven project delivery capabilities. We are very much looking forward to meeting and working with the Coronation team in person when the situation allows.”
