Fiera Capital Corporation will implement the solutions of BNY Mellon subsidiary and provider of financial services technology, Eagle Investment Systems.
Fiera Capital is an independent Canadian full-service investment management firm with approximately $55 billion in AUM.
It extended its existing relationship with Eagle Investment after buying the company's long-time client, Natcan Investment Management, in 2012.
Robert Trépanier, senior vice president for operations and IT at Fiera Capital, said: "In Natcan's case, we saw an opportunity to apply its current data management and performance measurement solutions to our entire company, thereby reducing multi-vendor complexity and saving time and money. Our adoption of Eagle's software and migration to the cloud will enable us to establish a firm-wide, state-of-the-art technology solution that is secure and universal."
"As a top investment manager in Canada, we saw the need for a leading technology provider that understands the industry and can advise us on how to best achieve our goals," added Maher Hemissi, vice president of IT and middle-office at Fiera Capital.
"Eagle has the experience and qualifications we were looking for in a vendor, and Natcan's success in using its platform was an obvious testament to their proven, broad capabilities.”
