HiPortfolio/2 is an integrated front and back office asset management system made up of more than 30 modules, each providing process sup-port for a specific category of investment instrument or business function. It is DST's most popular asset management system.

MMIM manages about $20 billion in funds from its Sydney office. Mercantile Mutual business manager Aiden Slevin says the system will only be installed in Sydney at this stage, but may be applied in parent company ING Investment Man-agement's offices in the Asia Pacific region later.
