Commenting on the release, PolarLake CEO John Randles said, "PolarLake has been involved in the integration, reconciliation and process management of FpML based trades for many years. Our core platform is more suited to this problem than any other on the market due to our patented XML pipelining technology. And, with our experience in many implementations with companies like JPMorgan, Société Générale, Pioneer Investments and Dimensional Fund Advisors, we have been able to package a complete integration, reconciliation, matching and BPM solution for the OTC Derivatives market. Companies new to these asset classes are looking for solutions, not a series of technical problems. Companies already working with these asset classes are well aware of the technical and operational problems, currently addressed by expensive manual processes. These are problems we have already solved."
