According to the company, the latest Bluedoor 2.0 release will offer financial institutions, fund administrators and asset managers seamless direct equities trading, model portfolio and term deposit STP capabilities all on the one technology platform.

All existing Bluedoor solution clients will receive new features with tailored configurations based on individual product and fund management strategies.

AXA Asia Pacific collaborated with DST Global Solutions on this development and will introduce the direct equities trading, model portfolios and term deposit administration facilities to its North product platform.

Martin Spedding, executive director for DST Global Solutions Bluedoor, said this is the single most significant functional enhancement since Bluedoor was launched to the Australian marketplace in 2006.

"These new capabilities are central to our goal of providing a transformational technology solution for retail platforms, superannuation fund administrators and industry funds by delivering operational efficiency, unparalleled investment options and user functionality," Spedding said.

The new Direct Equities Trading functionality will also enable Bluedoor 2.0 clients and their advisers and members to trade direct to market in real time without having to build or purchase another stand-alone system to integrate to their existing registry framework, said the company.
