Adenza, the new company formed by the merger of Calypso Technology and AxiomSL to provide customers with end-to-end, trading, treasury, risk management and regulatory compliance platforms, today announced that Banco BICE has significantly strengthened its investment in Adenza’s Calypso platform by choosing and implementing the second phase of the project with a number of additional modules.
In 2018, Banco BICE, a major Chilean Bank launched a key transformational project to replace incumbent technology for its capital markets business with a new, future-proof, consolidated cross-asset platform.
Specific target objectives of Banco BICE, when selecting Adenza’s Calypso platform included improving value offering to investors, bridging the manual process gap, speeding up the introduction of new products and significantly reducing operational risks and costs. With the first phase of the project successfully accomplished, including the implementation of Adenza’s Calypso Collateral Management and Clearing solution, Banco BICE can now focus on further expanding its transformation program to front to back, cross asset trading and risk management.
To achieve its initial strategic goals, Banco BICE is extending its usage of Adenza’s Calypso platform capabilities, which further demonstrates the strength of Adenza’s Calypso award-winning front to back offering.
We are delighted with the highly successful implementation of Adenza’s Calypso solution at Banco Bice. Despite the uncertainty caused by COVID-19, it is extremely encouraging to see Banco BICE continuing to make long-term investments that will position them strongly for years to come. Latin America is a strategic market for Adenza, with a number of new client signings recently confirming our strong positioning. We now operate through three offices in the region where we continue to invest to provide leading global solutions adapted to local market conditions and conventions.
