Provision and management of the underlying technology a firm runs on — hosting, desktops, networks, security and support — specialised for investment firms and their regulatory and resilience requirements.
Who uses Cloud and managed IT?
Technology, or nobody, at a firm without a technology team.
What gets confused with Cloud and managed IT?
Managed services for investment operations. This category is infrastructure; that one is investment process.
What should you ask a vendor about Cloud and managed IT?
Ask about regulatory audit support and evidence of resilience testing, not uptime percentages.
