Managers can view ratings data and customized security symbols, as well as calcu-lated values such as month-to-date, year-to-date, total amortization to date and more.
Global Enterprise Platform Improvements
Improvements to the platform enable users to save multiple price sets and exchange rates for use when viewingportfolio values or running reports. The platform also automatically extends the use of the last exchange rate throughany non-business days. As a result, exchange rates for the last business day of the week, or prior to a holiday, arenow automatically good through the weekend or holiday, to the next business day.
New reporting framework enables more customization, graphical presentation and the ability to integrate data from third-partysources into client reports.
APX now features enhanced integration withAdvent’s Moxy, the industry’s most widely usedtrade order management system. Portfolio man-agers can initiate a “quick order” within APX that isautomatically transmitted to Moxy for trade execu-tion.
