Sungard Receives Top Honors In The 2013 Sell-Side Technology Awards

Date 24/04/2013

SunGard has won “Sell-Side Technology Provider of the Year” and “Best Market Surveillance Product” in the first-annual Sell-Side Technology Awards.

The Sell-Side Technology judges chose SunGard as sell-side technology provider of the year based on the strength and breadth of the Company’s technology solutions for sell-side firms. SunGard is the only vendor to have won both the Buy-Side Technology Provider of the Year (2010) and Sell-Side Technology Provider of the Year (2013).

SunGard also won the market surveillance category for its Protegent compliance solution, which underwent enhancements in 2012 to help customers address new regulatory compliance challenges.

"Waters created the Sell-Side Technology Awards to acknowledge the achievements and innovations of third-party sell-side technology vendors and their solutions. Based on SunGard’s individual win in the best market surveillance category, and the votes it received in three additional categories, the Sell-Side Technology Awards judges selected SunGard as the first recipient of the most prestigious award of the programme – the sell-side technology provider of the year." - Victor Anderson, editor-in-chief, Waters and Waters Technology.

The aim of the Sell-Side Technology awards is to recognize the leading technologies and third-party vendors in their area of expertise, through an auditable and transparent methodology underpinned by the input and experience of eight judges — four sell-side CIOs/consultants and four of Waters magazine's senior staff members.
