Continued Recognition for Teknometry

This success follows Teknometry receiving a Special Commendation at the Funds Europe Awards in November 2013, in the ‘European Operations & Technology Providers of the Year – Middle Office’ category.

Criteria for the UK Cloud Award

The UK Cloud award sought to recognise a project that best exemplified the benefits that can be gained from migration to a cloud service from a traditional delivery model, showing best practice in how to mitigate data and service loss and demonstrating material value from the successful delivery of the project. Royal London Asset Management went live in April 2013.

“Teknometry offers an innovative product with a unique proposition and we congratulate the team on winning this award,” said Rakesh Kumar, RLAM’s Head of Fund Operations and Performance Measurement. “Teknometry was able to integrate existing data and workflows in a very short timeframe, with very little procedural change. This made migration relatively pain-free. The system went live seamlessly at quarter end and met or exceeded all of our reporting deadlines. This really was the acid test.”
