Active Allocator Announces 2018 Highlights
NEW YORK, February 5, 2019 (Newswire.com) - Active Allocator Holdings LLC ("ActiveAllocator”) announced today highlights of business milestones met in 2018.
Commented Brian Jones, ActiveAllocator’s co-founder, “In 2018 we remained laser focused on building our product roadmap to reshape the wealth management industry. We continue to reset advisor and investor expectations about investment management and asset allocation advice, including where the best advice comes from, what it should cost, and how it is delivered. Amongst other initiatives, we entered an early adopter partnership with FinTech giant Finastra for their FusionFabric.cloud open platform. In addition, our product is now used to manage billions of dollars in high net worth investment portfolios. We deployed our organization, processes, and technologies toward becoming a truly customer obsessed organization. We collaborated closely with external business analysts, systems architects, consultants and process analysts to define the technical requirements and processes needed to implement our vision. We extended our presence to the Middle East and jointly enhanced our product with the largest insurance company in Africa. Finally, we brought together multiple resources - developers, designers, channel professionals, and line of business executives - as we look to further add new capabilities.”
Sameer Jain, ActiveAllocator’s co-founder, noted, "Among other milestones, we completed build-out of our digital asset allocation platform, customized our offering for emerging markets, added complementary product capabilities, entered into distribution alliances, further validated our thesis and acquired early adopters. We intend to invest additional capital to execute on our business plan. In addition, we enhanced our investment research function to extend coverage to over 50 asset sub-classes, improved our algorithms and data infrastructure, as well as updated our key forward looking capital markets and model assumptions. Such effort has been rewarded by way of increase in our valuations as reflected in outright acquisition offers, we receive."
