HONG KONG and NEW YORK, May 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- ConvergEx Group, a leading technology company, today announced the launch of a new offering for its award-winning order management system, the Eze OMS', to address Hong Kong's Securities and Futures Commission's (SFC) recently issued requirements for disclosing net short positions.
The new offering gives Eze OMS customers a centralized solution to streamline reporting requirements. It automatically imports the SFC's list of specified companies that require short sale disclosure and generates a report for relevant short positions. Eze Compliance users also have the option to configure a rule to alert them when positions need to be disclosed.
"We have always maintained that it is critically important for us to help our customers prepare for regulatory and compliance changes in a timely manner by providing robust and flexible solutions that streamline labor-intensive regulatory reporting processes," said R.G. Manalac, managing director of Asia Pacific Consulting for ConvergEx's Eze Castle Software. "The Eze OMS possesses an unparalleled level of configurability that allows us to put in place the necessary structures so that we can respond to these changes quickly and effectively."
The award-winning Eze OMS leverages a real-time open architecture to streamline the investment cycle for all asset classes - from idea generation through settlement. The Eze OMS provides functionality to support portfolio management, compliance, trading and operations in a single platform.
