iQuant Solutions is a London-based fintech startup with staff located in London, Zurich, Frankfurt and Budapest that provides data management, quant modelling, and regulatory fund reporting solutions to the asset management industry.
During the last decade, the reporting requirements for asset managers have increased tremendously. Our mission is to help financial institutions regain control of their data, in terms of quality and availability, to better serve their clients and meet their reporting obligations. We believe that automation of fund data and reporting is the only key to a
modern, efficient and long-term solution for those challenges.
We think that the exchange of manually filled Excel files is a thing of the past and are therefore convinced to become a key player in the future of asset management.
To increase our capabilities, we re currently looking for highly motivated Fund Reporting Operations Managers who want to join our exciting journey.
