SEI

DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES--(Marketwire - July 2, 2012) - SEI (NASDAQ: SEIC) today announced that it was named "Hedge Fund Administrator of the Year" at the 2012 Global Investor Awards, held in London on June 28. The award, presented by Global Investor magazine, is the latest in a series of awards recognizing SEI's leadership and technology in providing enhanced data services and operational outsourcing services to the investment management industry worldwide.

 

"We're honored to be recognized by Global Investor as Hedge Fund Administrator of the Year," said Steve Meyer, Executive Vice President and Head of SEI's Investment Manager Services division. "With the increasing demands being placed on hedge fund managers by their investors, regulators, and the market itself, we've worked closely with our clients to enhance and expand our services so that we can provide them with the expertise, technology, and reporting tools to help them protect and grow their business. Our employees are motivated to produce a world-class offering to our clients, and this independent industry award recognizing their efforts is a testament to what they've been able to deliver."

 

SEI provides investment managers with a comprehensive outsourcing solution that includes front-, middle-, and back-office services. The judging committee selected SEI in part due to its technology-based solutions for collateral management, NAV disclosure, and pricing and verification. Also noted was SEI's ability to provide managers of systematic and high-frequency trading strategies with a more automated and scalable infrastructure. SEI incorporates automation, workflow processes, and controls to facilitate a straight-through-processing environment that currently processes up to 120,000 trades per day for some of its high-volume clients.
