History

SS&C was founded by William C.

In 2021, Mammoth Scientific selected SS&C as the administrator and technology partner for its $100 million venture capital fund.[9] The fund is for health science and technology companies.[9] In October, Gordian Capital started using the company’s Eze Investment Suite for its trading, portfolio, and risk management services in Singapore and Japan.[10]

In May 2022, Liontrust Asset Management extended its mandate with SS&C.[11] The company uses SS&C’s products to manage the majority of its £38.5 billion in assets.[11]

In June, SS&C released a new asset allocator platform for institutional investors.[12] It was powered by FundHub and provided fund data aggregation and analysis, holdings look-through, document management, ABOR and IBOR reporting, performance management, liquidity planning, and exposure analysis.[12]
