Standard Bank selects Blue Curve as new Research Production Platform
Corero plc, a leading provider of financial research software solutions to the securities industry, announces that it has signed an agreement with Standard Bank Group, one of South Africa's largest financial services organisations, for its Blue Curve product suite.
Standard Bank will implement Blue Curve within its Corporate and Investment Banking division to help provide enhanced research services to its customers. The new solution will provide Standard Bank with an improved research production process, including financial data management, document production and compliance management. The solution will initially be installed in the Nigerian, Turkish and Kenyan offices, with a rollout to all research analysts to follow.
Corero will host the Blue Curve software, allowing it to be accessed across the Internet by all Standard Bank analysts, whatever their location.
"Standard Bank is a prestigious organisation and we're delighted that it has chosen Blue Curve as its research production platform", said Mark Robertson, Managing Director of Corero Financial Markets. "Standard Bank needed a solution that could be installed quickly, but at the same time, being a major bank, it had to be satisfied that the security and architecture also met its requirements. I'm pleased to say that Blue Curve v5 ticked all the boxes."
