GBST enters new alliance
Australian-based financial services platform provider, GBST Holdings Limited has entered into an alliance with British-based business technology provider, Xchanging plc.
The development has been confirmed by GBST Wealth Management chief executive, Robert DeDominicis who said it was intended to align the GBST software suite, with the Xchanging BPO scalable processing capability to build a platform for wealth management and capital market players.
"The industry continues to evolve and this creates the opportunity for innovation and the ‘better together' approach," he said.
