Société Générale Private Banking Implements Odyssey's WUI

Société Générale Private Banking Switzerland has implemented a Web user interface (WUI) by Lausanne, Switzerland-based Odyssey Asset Management Systems. The WUI currently allows more than 140 Relationship Managers to use a selection of Odyssey's Relationship Manager and Portfolio Manager components as the backbone for their front-office workstation. The WUI has been customized to access the bank's back-office system, enabling users to place online front-to-back orders, fiduciary and transfer trades. The next phase of the project will include the implementation of the Relationship Manager's online alerts and multi-criteria query (MCQ), both of which are subsets of Odyssey's Client and Portfolio Modeling component. Portions of Odyssey's new Collaborative Advice & Contact Management and Client Data Management components will also be included in the next phase of Société Générale project.
