The investment management industry has faced incremental change and improvements for a long time; all-in-one and best-of-breed have both gone in and out of fashion as investment management firms have built up complex system architectures to serve their businesses. The end result has typically been operating models that work for the time being (more or less), but are costly to run and increasingly slow to evolve.
THE WINNERS OF THE FUTURE WILL BE THE ONES WHO BEST ADAPT TO CHANGE.
Limina was founded by investment management professionals who saw an opportunity to help investment firms not just cope with change, but to embrace it. We believe a modern open platform designed for holistic workflows with sufficient flexibility - as opposed to closed, rigid and fragmented solutions – is the key to help investment managers get back into the driving seat from a technology and operating model perspective. Headquartered in Stockholm and founded in Sweden (well, sort of – read our founding story here!), our Swedish heritage is one that influences our culture deeply, with core values such as openness, collaboration, and humility being at the heart of everything we do. Having been on the client-side ourselves, we know how valuable it is to have a trusted partner who understands you, and that is what we aspire to be for each of our clients.
