We consistently receive excellent support and have been able to successfully complete all projects within the predetermined time and cost framework”, explains Thomas Weidmann, Head of Fixed Income Trading at Helaba. Along with the flexible and clear contract terms, in which supplementary mandatory updates are covered under the maintenance agreement, the short implementation times as well as customised and innovative customer adaptations motivated a speedy release upgrade to the new iQbonds Version 4.3.
