EXPERTISE AND RELIABILITYProfidata has built a strong reputation as a software provider and has specialised in the investment management market for over 20 years now. The XENTIS success story, along with the many long-standing partnerships with customers, testify to the innovative design, strong customer focus and proven reliability of the software.

LONG-TERM INVESTMENT PROTECTIONThrough a programme of continuous invest-ment, the software’s evolutionary develop-ment concept ensures that XENTIS is always being upgraded, optimised and re-engi-neered to meet changing market require-ments and customer needs.

...What do XENTIS customers say?

‘The new service for managing the invest-

ments of insurance companies complements

the universe of Helaba Invest services. Here it’s

essential to ensure compliance with legal and

internal regulations for the protection of finan-

cial assets. The ability of XENTIS to respond

quickly and flexibly to constantly changing

regulations is a vital advantage for us. (...).’Dr. Christian PoppManagement Board, Helaba Invest, Frankfurt am Main

‘Bank Gutmann’s strategic business areas

can be developed in a more systematic man-

ner by using XENTIS as an integrated and

comprehensive asset management system

for our investment company, custodian bank

and asset management arm. We’ve found

the right business partner in Profidata. This

is a company fully capable of completing

such a complex implementation project on

time and with whom we can work in close

cooperation.’Adolf HengstschlägerPartner and Member of the Management Board, Bank Gutmann, Vienna

‘The entry into force of the Investment Tax

Reform Act entails a lot of extra work, ties

up considerable human resources for all

investment companies affected, and puts us

under time pressure. (…) it is therefore even

more important that Profidata has come

up with an appropriate solution incredibly

quickly so that tax treatment can be handled

correctly. (...).’

Stefan Rockel, Managing Director of Universal- Investment-Gesellschaft mbH and Chairman of the Tax Committee of the German federal industry association Bundesverband Investment und Asset Management e.V., Frankfurt am Main

XENTIS – modular and flexible

XENTIS

PROFIDATA AG, PROFIDATA SERVICES AG

FLEXIBILITY IS A MAJOR COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGEOur customers’ requirements can be extremely complex and diverse. The ability of XENTIS to accommodate these needs quickly gives our customers a significant competitive advantage.

BEST-IN-CLASS COMPLIANCE, BROAD REPORTING SPECTRUMOne of the key strengths of XENTIS is the flex-ibility of its basic design. This is particularly evident in the investment compliance module, which has to accommodate constantly chang-ing legal and individual customer requirements.

A CENTRAL HUB FOR COMMUNICATING WITH CONNECTED SYSTEMSXENTIS can interface with partners such as brokers, depositary banks, clearing houses and subsidiaries, or with most other linked systems.

EXCELLENT FUNCTIONAL BREADTH AND DEPTHUnlike earlier best-of-breed configurations, today’s customers expect their software to have a strong, self-contained functional breadth and as much functional depth as possible. To this end, customers are looking for a standard software solution that meets their individual needs. This is precisely what XENTIS offers.

ROLL OUT MODULES IN STAGES, ADD FUNCTIONS AS REQUIREDOur customers particularly appreciate the mod-ular structure of XENTIS, which lets them start with just a few modules (covering their basic requirements) initially, then gradually add extra functions later on to cater for other needs.

STANDARD SOFTWARE CAN STILL BE CUSTOMISEDThe concept of flexible data, a comprehen-sive business risk engine and high degree of parametrisation enable XENTIS to meet indi-vidual customer requirements.

Individual structures for investors and investments– Management of all asset classes in accord- ance with country-specific regulations– Third-party/own assets with comprehen- sive consolidation– Instant modelling of new investment types/ asset classes with special features

Flexible master and market data– Free choice of data provider – Ad-hoc expansion of master and market data in line with legal regulations– Rules-based customisation of data from different sources (golden copy)

Powerful business rules engine for new rules and processes on demand– Test rules for pre-/post-trade– Country and sector modules– Workflow for business processes with automation– Theoretical pricing of instruments, as well as calculation of ratios

XENTIS AS A CLOUD SOLUTIONXENTIS cloud (Xcloud) is a hosted solution or software as a Service (SaaS), and is operated in a computer centre complying with FINMA regulations. It is a particularly attractive and economical alternative for smaller and medi-um-sized financial service providers, as they do not need their own IT resources.

INTUITIVE WEALTH MANAGEMENT Family offices, banks, asset managers and other financial service providers appreciate the wide-ranging functionality and intuitive nature of the software. With its flexible archi-tecture and innovative technology, e-AMIS allows efficient management of investments. Portfolio managers and investment advisors use e-AMIS to improve the quality of their advice and guarantee optimum customer support.

COMPETENT ADVICE AND DECISIONSUnder the rules of professional conduct and other legal requirements, asset managers are obliged to keep a record of the investment advice they provide to clients and draw up a profile describing clients’ risk affinity and risk tolerance. The asset manager uses this

risk profile as a basis for defining and con-tinuously monitoring the client’s investment strategy. This process is automated in e-AMIS and also supported by comprehensive port-folio analysis. Asset allocations as well as opportunities and risks (exposure) are dis-played clearly.

Cash flow projections show future inflows and outflows. A wide range of simulations of market and investment scenarios allow well-founded decisions. Modelling and optimisa-tion of portfolios on the basis of investment or reallocation proposals, according to differ-ent investment strategies or defined lists of recommendations, can be generated easily during client consultations.

SUCCESS MADE VISIBLEe-AMIS meets current requirements for per-formance measurement (GIPS 2010) and cal-culates IRR, MWR and TWR down to position level. Results are made transparent via con-tribution and attribution analyses. Even in its standard version, e-AMIS offers high-quality reporting which users can adapt using pre-defined modules and folder structures. In addition, e-AMIS allows customised report-ing that meets the client’s corporate design standards.

SIMPLE REPRESENTATION OF COMPLEX STRUCTURESAsset managers – and family offices in par-ticular – face the common challenge of hav-ing to individually manage investments held in different associated companies or trusts. At the same time, they are required to pro-duce consolidated valuations of these assets and provide investors with periodic updates in the form of a transparent report. In the case of complex ownership structures, pro-ducing a breakdown of asset allocation, risk management and performance measure-ment for the investor’s entire wealth can be a very laborious task. But there is a solution: e-AMIS offers a function for modelling own-ership structures.

EASY TO USEThe modern design of e-AMIS offers high levels of user comfort. Navigation is easy to learn. A wide variety of search and filter crite-ria are provided for quick and targeted access to the required information. The software is multi-lingual and users can select their pre-ferred language at any time. All functions are usable not just in relation to individual port-folios, but to any number of consolidated portfolios, which are frequently held at mul-tiple depositary banks.

THE FUTURE OF INVESTMENT SOFTWARE SOLUTIONSProfidata XLab AG (XLab) is Profidata Group’s autonomous research unit, overseeing the evaluation and implementation of future technologies, entire systems or product com-ponents. Undisturbed by the daily business and the pressure of deadlines, XLab’s job is to lay the basis for Profidata’s future product portfolio that is intended to be on the market in five or ten years’ time.

Our mission is to keep abreast with what are in some cases immense advances in the IT domain. The challange here is to distinguish between fundamental changes and short-term trends, draw the right conclusions and continuously improve our products so that our portfolio can claim to offer the lead-ing-edge product for many years to come.

The foundation is provided by the huge pool of know-how acquired by Profidata’s experts who are able to contribute their knowledge across the entire spectrum of market require-ments, functionality, structuring and future technologies to the many concepts in the pipeline.

What’s more, we carefully analyse the ideas, wishes and problems of our customers that arise during the course of doing business with their own end clients, and ensure that these are taken into consideration in future planning. For one thing is quite clear: we must develop IT tools that allow our custom-ers to provide an impressive service perfor-mance and help to strengthen the business relationship with their own end clients. In order to grow in the face of stiff competition, they have to be able to offer more attrac-tive services than their competitors. Last but not least, the increasingly strict regulations imposed by supervisory authorities place heavy demands on the quality of data and also the efficiency of their processing, as well as generating additional costs.

XENTIS 8Profidata has launched the development project for the next generation of XENTIS software, codenamed ‘XENTIS 8’. As well as improving the development process, expand-ing the level of automation and system moni- toring, some of the issues we are addressing include:

Web-based solutionWe will design XENTIS as a web application. This not only eliminates software distribution problems and allows the use of ‘thin clients’, but also offers the opportunity to make cer-tain functionalities available to our customer’s own end clients.

Greater modularity The aim is to split XENTIS into several individ-ual components that are independent of each other. By removing this (release) dependency, the components can be extended and main-tained separately, while at the same time reducing both the complexity and the risk with each release. This will in turn help to make the system more robust. On top of that, there is the possibility of installing individual components on different virtual or physical machines.

XENTIS as a platformThe individual XENTIS components should be designed and described by an interface (API) in a way that allows them to be replaced by alternative implementations. This allows our customers to cater for special requests in cer-tain areas and to implement these along with the other standard XENTIS components. This means XENTIS can be embedded much more easily and seamlessly even in very heteroge-neous system landscapes.

XENTIS as a cloud solutionWe want to continue to build XENTIS into a first-class Software as a Service offering. It should be possible to offer the customer either the complete system, as well as just individual subcomponents, as a turnkey, hosted solution. We hope to achieve this by modifying the architecture in such a way that XENTIS is conceived as a cloud solution from the ground up.
