On the 2nd of June, ipushpull participated in The Investment Association (IA) Engine Innovators Power Pitches, where cohort 3 of the buy-side focused Engine programme showcased the latest technology solutions for asset managers and hedge funds.
The Engine programme is a Fintech accelerator and hub that gives a platform to best-in-class Fintech innovators, connecting innovative, proven solutions with the investment management sector. In particular, as COVID-19 has highlighted the importance of technology and innovation in ensuring business endurance and growth, agility and scalability are now more crucial than ever for the competitive success of organisations of all sizes.
A lineup of 5 Fintechs, chosen by the heavy-hitting IA Engine advisory panel, presented their solutions for 3 minutes each, highlighting how they can assist firms and bring in efficiencies, lower costs and enable opportunity. The webinar also included an engaging interactive panel of Q&As.
The IA Engine cohort 3 speakers included:

M&G Investments – Siobhan Clarke, Chair of the Engine Advisory Panel and Head of International Investment
For the 3-minute pitch, CEO Matthew Cheung explained how ipushpull can enable fully digitised data-driven workflows on a trading desk. To showcase how ipushpull can be implemented, Matthew described the severe inadequacies in pre-trade workflow for non-standard OTC trades. To solve these, organisations can streamline their workflows and move away from the inconsistencies and inefficiencies of spreadsheets and emails. ipushpull allows organisations to reduce operational risk and manual touchpoints for a faster, more efficient investment process. Embracing data-driven workflows enables exponential data flywheel effects – faster feedback loops mean more data, provide better insights, create better workflow. All of this can be done without any development work and instead by ‘levelling up’ existing technology.
