Investment Management Solutions

An efficient, smoothly functioning operations hub is one of the keys to success in asset management. At DST Global Solutions, we provide the technology solutions that allow buy-side firms of all sizes to optimise business-critical operations and build the platform on which their business can develop - through new instruments, new products or new markets.

Leader in middle office and asset servicing solutions

We are a leading provider of middle office and asset servicing solutions to the global asset management industry, with a history that stretches over 30 years. But we are also one of the most dynamic. We continue to evolve new solutions to address the increasing complexity our clients face.

We help our clients:

  • enhance business performance and profitability
  • improve control and manage risk
  • raise operating efficiency

Our clients range from sovereign wealth funds and global asset managers to single-site, boutique firms. They include global insurers, third-party administrators and alternative investment managers.

We are truly global ...

With five regional operating hubs and some 20 offices, we have a truly global footprint. We service our clients on every continent. We provide 24/7 coverage.

That global presence allows us to import best practice into any market.

... but agile too

We are highly customer-responsive. Our approach is consultative. We work with our clients to gain a full understanding of their issues and requirements. Only then do we combine our industry experience, software skills and integration know-how to create the solutions that will deliver value as needed.

Many of our solutions are highly flexible. In areas such as performance measurement and risk management, our HiPerformance and Askari solutions are always customised to suit.

HiPortfolio, our market-leading investment accounting application, has been an industry benchmark for 20 years. 

In addition to supplying our own solutions we are always ready to collaborate with emerging third-party technology providers if that allows us to answer client needs and promote innovative solutions.
