Class, nabtrade partner on direct-connect data


Specialist self-managed superannuation fund administration provider, Class, has broken new ground by partnering with nabtrade to provide direct-connect data amid its continuing move towards an initial public offering to list on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX).
Class will support a nabtrade data feed for its wealth accounting cloud software solutions, Class Super and Class Investment Reporter.
nabtrade head of SMSF solutions, Gemma Dale, said the partnership will help its international equities platform.
"Our partnership with Class further streamlines the process, from investment through to accounting and reporting in the Class solution," Dale said.
The nabtrade direct-connect data feed allows trades executed via the nabtrade platform to be automatically processed in Class and reconciled to cash paid or received.
Class chief executive, Kevin Bungard, said the partnership stems from the increasing interest and demand for foreign investments.
"Being able to offer direct-connect data feeds from leading providers such as nabtrade in conjunction with Class' foreign asset support delivers first class functionality for SMSFs," he said.
Currently, nabtrade offers investors access to five markets, eight exchanges, and over 10,000 global equities and exchange traded funds.
