Excelian, Luxoft Financial Services, and Calypso Technology, a leading provider of capital markets software, have announced an agreement which formally recognises Excelian as an official Calypso partner.
This agreement enables Excelian to strategically partner with Calypso to deliver global system integration services around the Calypso platform. It provides a collaborative framework which directly benefits Excelian Calypso clients, as it takes the relationship a step further by means of shared best practices. In addition, consultants in our growing Calypso practice will gain access to Calypso University and will receive the latest training and certifications.
“Excelian has a proven track record of successful Calypso delivery, and this partnership will unlock new synergies between Excelian’s delivery capability and Calypso’s technical innovation. This partnership brings together a market leading Cross-Asset, Front-to-Back Calypso platform and our best practice vendor integration services to deliver value-add benefits to clients,” said Jeremy Ward, Chief Executive Officer of Excelian. “As a result, customers will benefit from accelerated implementations and upgrades, achieving quicker time-to-market, reduced operational risk, and increased efficiency.”
“This is an excellent opportunity for both firms,” commented Pascal Xatart, Calypso’s Chief Executive Officer. “As our global client base expands, Excelian will allow us to scale our business quickly and at a lower cost for both our customers and ourselves. They are an industry leading systems integrator, and Calypso is committed to providing them with the access they need to ensure our clients receive the highest level of service.”
Prakash Anthony, Head of Calypso for Excelian, added, “This is an exciting and important partnership for Excelian. In today’s extremely challenging markets, clients are faced with managing a full range of assets, high volumes, complex strategies, and one-stop-processing, all whilst ensuring they comply with increased regulations and control costs. Because of these increasing demands, financial institutions must ensure that they are using the latest (Calypso) technology to meet these expectations. By cementing our relationship with Calypso, our clients will benefit from accelerated implementation times, lower overall costs, and a more rapid return on investment.”
