STW Fixed Income Management implemented Corticon's business rules management system to automate complex investment portfolio management rules and regulations in order to improve operational efficiencies, reduce costs, and maintain a competitive edge. Key applications developed with Corticon include pre- and post-trade compliance checking, daily compliance monitoring, automated after-tax performance reporting, and an integrated accounting system. Corticon's model-driven rules approach allowed STW to build these sophisticated rules-based applications while containing costs and increasing agility.
