Northern Trust completes CSC implementation



Investment management administration specialist Northern Trust has successfully completed the implementation and integration of Commonwealth Superannuation Corporation (CSC) onto its technology platform.
Northern Trust, which was appointed to provide master custody and related services to the $26 billion CSC fund in late 2011, completed the transition of CSC's custody arrangements this month.
It followed on from Northern Trust also implementing a restructure of the ARIA Investment Trust.
Commenting on the development, Northern Trust Australia managing director Rohan Singh said he believed the company's ability to deliver a range of online services and provide clients such as CSC with access to data for exposure and transparency purposes represented a key to managing risk on a real-time basis.
