Developing Digital Investment Platforms for the 21st century

As an industry leader in investment technology and infrastructure, we were a founding member of EMX Co, now owned by Euroclear, which established a UK fund order routing system with technology developed by a Fidelity unit.

With the backend infrastructure in place, we focused on the direct client impact of new digital platform trading opportunities, and with FundsNetwork launched our first online fund supermarket in the UK at the turn of the millennium. FundsNetwork gives advisers and private investors access to a wide range of funds from different investment managers. In 2002, FundsNetwork was also launched in Hong Kong and Taiwan. In Germany, we acquired one of the top-3 domestic fund platform providers in 2008 to form the fund platform FFB. FFB has also been serving the Austrian market since 2013.
