NEW YORK, NY and LONDON and HONG KONG--(Marketwire - December 16, 2009) - Paladyne Systems, a
leading solutions provider to the global hedge fund industry, today
announced that Cyrus Capital Partners, L.P., a New York-based alternative
investment management firm, has successfully implemented Paladyne Credit
Master®, an integrated bank loan trading and loan administration
platform. Paladyne Credit Master® is a comprehensive solution for
managing the entire lifecycle of bank debt trading and operations and is
available either as a fully hosted, Application Service Provider ("ASP")
solution or as a local installation.
"Our decision to implement Paladyne Credit Master® was based on the
system's ability to support our entire bank debt portfolio and its
pre-existing integration with our portfolio accounting system, SunGard
VPM™," said David Milich, Partner and Chief Operating Officer at Cyrus
Capital. "In addition, we were able to leverage Paladyne's hosted platform,
which significantly reduced our implementation timeframe and cost."
Paladyne Credit Master® supports the front- and back-office needs of
firms trading bank debt including portfolio analysis, trade capture and
allocation, settlement and closing, pricing and P&L, compliance and
portfolio reporting. Paladyne Credit Master® is integrated with
Paladyne's suite of product for a complete multi-asset class solution as
well as with both SunGard VPM™ and Advent's Geneva®, including
facility and contract details, transactions, daily accruals, pricing, and
detailed accounting entries.
"We see increasing demand for trading bank debt and we are excited to bring
Cyrus Capital on board as a successful new client," said Sameer Shalaby,
CEO of Paladyne Systems. "Our ability to satisfy Cyrus Capital's demanding
requirements is a testament of the power and flexibility of Paladyne Credit
Master®."
