Zurich rolls out Milestone’s pControl and pQuant
Zurich Financial Services Australia has announced it has gone live with Milestone Group’s pControl and pQuant solutions for middle and back-office operations.
pControl is a funds automation platform, while pQuant is a portfolio analytics solution.
Zurich Investments general manager Matthew Drennan said the company saw an advantage in dealing with a single vendor platform across a range of functions, rather than using a number of disparate legacy technologies.
“This provides us with greater control end-to-end and delivers a robust and scalable infrastructure that will be a key enabler for future growth,” he said.
