Investment Management Software

Global Asset Managers rely on Limina’s cloud-based Investment Management Software (IMS). With Limina, managers unlock a new era of investment workflows to achieve their operational governance goals.

Limina IMS is the only front-to-middle office solution powered by a live-extract Investment Book of Record (IBOR). As an open investment management platform, the IMS operates with other systems and data sources to enable a complete, accurate, and timely view of investment data.

A Multi-asset Class, Investment Manager Software – Loved by Clients

Limina IMS is a cross-asset solution powered by an IBOR at the heart of investment processes. Sophisticated Portfolio and Order Management solutions and Pre & Post-trade Compliance sit on top of the IBOR. Risk & Portfolio Performance attribution capabilities are fully integrated through partners.

With Limina, your team can achieve the highest level of data quality with minimal effort - thanks to extensive connectivity and embedded data management capabilities. More confident investment decisions are enabled with investment data quality improved.

The feedback from our clients is clear, Limina’s cloud-native Investment Management Software is not only powerful but user-friendly. Incorporating cutting-edge technology enhances operational efficiency, helps reduce operating costs, and mitigates operational risks.

Designed to Fit Your Operating Model

During the past decade, integrated front-to-back systems have become the standard choice for investment managers. There is no front-to-back system with solid capabilities in all areas, so most asset managers still have multiple systems across their middle office operations. Despite the clear trend indicating a reduction in the number of investment software systems utilised by asset managers, it is essential to acknowledge that this shift can potentially harm the functionality of certain firms.

The design of Limina allows it to fit multiple operating models without custom code. It can, for example, start as a pure OMS / PMS or be the entire front-to-middle office solution. In cases where back office functions are outsourced, some of our clients don’t run an accounting platform and instead rely on Limina as the only operations and Front Office system for all their needs.

A Real-time System - Built From Scratch for Today’s Requirements

Limina was founded in 2014 to create a system that significantly improves asset managers’ workflows and decision support.

The critical insight towards this goal was that to serve Front & Middle Office better than previous investment solutions - a fresh approach was required in technology and the underlying architecture for serving positions, cash and security data.

From a blank canvas and leveraging modern technology, Limina IMS was engineered with a 3rd generation live-extract IBOR at the core, powering the Portfolio Management, Compliance, Risk, Performance Attribution and Trade Order Management capabilities. All modules are fully cloud-based and easily accessible from a web browser.

The Limina Investment Management Solution provides your team with a complete and accurate real-time view of all investment data. This data includes current, forward-looking and historical positions, exposures, P&L, cash ladder and more. You get it when and where you need it – embedded in the investment lifecycle and any device.

Principles

We started our mission in 2014 with a blank canvas and a set of principles that we believe are critical for how an Investment Management System (IMS) should be built and delivered:

OPEN

We believe an IMS should enable change by connecting to any 3rd party system or service provider. If you want to launch new funds or change your operating model, an open IMS should make that faster and more cost-efficient.

EXCEPTION-BASED

Trusting the data in the system is essential for Front Office decisions and governance in operational processes. Your team shouldn’t have to spend valuable time tracking down potential issues; the system should find and flag them automatically.

SUPPORTED BY PEERS

We believe the best customer support for Asset Managers comes when the team you work with have experience in Investment Management. Dedicated team members from the industry learn your business and can assist you most effectively.

FRONT-TO-MID & CROSS-ASSET

An IMS should be cross-asset and cover workflows from start to finish without jumping between systems. This increases productivity, allows superior oversight, and enables operational controls.
