Rest will implement Charles River IMS to support their internally managed investments as well as their ‘whole-of-fund’ requirements, leveraging the Charles River Investment Book of Record (IBOR) for realtime cash and positions. Rest will use Charles River to support and deliver a transparent view and workflow across their business, including portfolio construction, decision support, risk, collateral management, order management and compliance.

“The platform’s flexibility and scalability will enable us to automate processes and achieve efficiencies at this time as we build a global best practice internal investment capability. Combining internal and external investment management in one desktop system will allow us to focus real-time on achieving strong long-term returns for our members,” said Andrew Lill, Chief Investment Officer, Rest.

“Charles River continues to build a strong local presence in Melbourne which is critical to supporting our growing client base in the superannuation sector,” said Cameron Field, managing director – Asia Pacific, Charles River Development. “The adoption of Microsoft Azure as the cloud platform for our SaaS deployment delivers compelling benefits for this market such as the ability for clients to rapidly deploy new products and services, ease of increasing data and computing capacity, as well as a suitable approach for addressing data residency concerns.”

State Street currently provides Rest with custodial services as well as their data management solution State Street Alpha℠ Data Services.
