Schroders case study published today

Calastone today published a case study on fund automation with Schroders.  We were delighted to work with Alex Murton of Schroders on this case study, particularly as Schroders take advantage of the full suite of Calastone services, both as a fund manager and as a fund buyer.

Some highlights of the research:

• Schroders STP rates in mutual fund processing have risen from 55% to 84% since joining Calastone in 2008
• Cost per trade is now 36% cheaper than processing a manual trade
•  Settlements service live since March and volumes increasing rapidly month-on-month
