Sameer Shalaby, Sol Zlotchenko, and Scott Alderson founded Paladyne Systems in 2005. The company quickly gained traction among hedge funds, and in just 6 years grew to servicing 150 clients with 160 staff. Following the quick growth, in 2011 Paladyne Systems was acquired by Broadridge (NYSE:BR), an S&P500 fintech company.
Our understanding is that the product has been renamed to Broadridge Portfolio Master since, but we struggle to find an announcement for the renaming. That product is being pitched to service asset managers (as well as hedge funds), although no data on asset managers serviced is presented.
Over the years, Paladyne has continuously evolved its product suite to meet the changing needs of its clients. The modular Paladyne Suite includes:
- Order management
- Portfolio management
- Reference data management
- Investment data warehouse and custom reporting
- Reconciliation

Integration with 3rd party systems
Paladyne Portfolio Master integrates with various third-party systems, including portfolio accounting applications like Advent’s Geneva. This integration ensures a smooth data flow between systems, reducing manual intervention and minimising the risk of errors.
However, since Broadridge manages the integrations, you’re dependent on their resources being available if you need to make changes or add integrations. There might also be costs associated with integrations.
Limina takes an entirely novel approach to integrations, which removes all costs and vendor dependency without any downside (no developer resources needed).
Report based
Paladyne Portfolio Management System is a report-based system.
- Pro: It allows users to generate bespoke reports that meet their needs regarding the data they want to see.
- Con: Users build reports as a workaround for workflows the vendor could’ve supported natively. This consumes time that could’ve been spent elsewhere.

Broker neutral
ASP solution
Paladyne is an ASP (not SaaS), which means it’s a hosted solution. The vendor takes what used to be software and runs it on servers.
- Pro: you get one environment for just you (single tenant). You can be sure that your data is isolated from all other clients.
- Con: hosting costs are usually higher. Access might not be via browser/app (but via VPN). There is a higher risk of downtime.
Limina has a model where we can deliver SaaS (browser access) and isolate data between clients. We call this the 4th Generation Investment Management Technology.
