Current challenges include shrinking margins, the need to create operational efficiencies, addressing risk management issues and meeting the growing demand for personalized investment services. These new Accelerator solutions respond to the need for evolving technologies and digitized ways of working with and for clients, as well as automating processes for buy-side firms that include tracking regulatory compliance requirements.

Synechron’s fresh new InvestTech Accelerator program’s solutions are built to solve some of the current challenges and add value through time and cost savings. These future-forward solutions are built through Synechron’s own internal R&D efforts in close collaboration with key investment industry firms’ leaders.
