2007 is proving to be as exciting as the incredible year we had in 2006. After successfully merging and integrating Wall Street Systems, Trema and Richmond Software in 2006, we set forth two key client objectives for 2007:

  • Enhance our clients’ experience
  • Accelerate the implementation process

So far, we have made significant progress in both these areas. We have hosted many smaller, regional client events and face-to-face meetings to provide updates on the company’s activities, gain feedback and to discuss specific client matters. Similarly we have greatly improved the flow of internal communications and training for our employees, to help them better serve our clients. We have recently added resources to Client Services and invested in tools to expand our Help Desk.

We are committed to accelerating the implementation and upgrade process of our software. Research and Development, Professional Services and Account Management are working closely together to enhance the implementation speed and quality of major projects.  We have recently hired and trained a number of new recruits to provide additional capacity to our professional staff. Additionally, we have embarked on a company-wide initiative to improve software quality and boost performance. Together these steps are beginning to show meaningful results, as reported by many of our clients.

Through the first half of the year, a number of our clients have gone live with the Wallstreet Suite Version 7 solution, with others scheduled to follow or in the process of launching projects to commence through the last quarter of 2007. We have seen an endorsement of Wallstreet Suite v7 through both client upgrades and new client installations, with clients on all modules (TRM, CMM, ACM and CLM), either on a module only basis or as a consolidated solution across the full suite. The clients on Wallstreet Suite v7 are from multiple sectors - from Central Banks and Financial Institutions, through to Corporations.  Wallstreet is now planning for the accelerated adoption of this product across the installed base.
 
Looking ahead for the remainder of the year, we will continue to focus on enhancing the client experience. We have the best clients in the world, and we want to continue to be your trusted partner for many years to come. Please consider joining our User Group Meeting (UGM) in Monaco, 5-7 September 2007.  It will the first time we have invited clients from across the company’s products and services. We are looking forward to meeting you there.

Thank you for your patronage and interest. As always, we strive to serve you better.
