LIM Advisors Integrates Fidessa LatentZero's Capstone

Multi-strategy investment group uses front-office suite for portfolio management, compliance, trading and operations.

LIM Advisors Limited, an Asian-based multi-strategy investment group, went live with Fidessa Latent Zero’s front-office suite, Capstone, according to the company’s release. More than 20 team members in LIM’s Hong Kong headquarters are now using Capstone to support portfolio management, compliance, trading and operations at the buy-side firm, which has approximately $900 million in assets under management.

LIM has integrated Capstone with its front and middle offices to achieve a seamless workflow, including market data for enhanced analysis, in-house compliance rules for pre-trade checks, FIX network for electronic trading, and straight through processing to LIM’s accounting platform and third-party administrator.

“We wanted to build an institutional architecture to support all of the asset classes in our multi-strategy business,” commented George Long, founder and chief investment officer of LIM Advisors, in the release. “Fidessa LatentZero’s functionality across equities, funds, listed derivatives, VS, fixed income and OTC products has been delivered,” he added in the release, also citing his partnership with Latent Zero’s CEO Richard Jones and his team.

In a statement, Jones said, “Asia is an important focus for us, and we are pleased to be partnering with one of the leading Asian asset managers as we look to consolidate our position in the region.”
