Describe your key innovations

Our solutions are deeply rooted in key innovations that set us apart in the market. We continually strive to push the boundaries of what is possible and bring cutting-edge advancements to our clients. Let's dive into the specific innovations incorporated into our offerings.

In our Investment Data Warehouse, we have introduced a range of innovations to optimize data management and achieve data integrity. One notable innovation is the ability to classify securities differently for different purposes, for instance a security can be classified differently for investment and regulatory compliance purposes. Additionally, our Investment Data Warehouse incorporates an automated data defect checking and classification system. This innovation streamlines the data validation process and enables users to swiftly address and fix the identified data defects, ensuring data accuracy. Moreover, the system can auto-resolve similar data defects in the future, saving time and effort in subsequent encounters of the same issue.

For our Portfolio Management & Analytics System, we have introduced a high performance and highly interactive dashboard that offers comprehensive analysis of portfolios including absolute returns analysis, performance & risk metrics, portfolio allocation, benchmark comparisons and portfolio aggregation. The intuitive and interactive interface empower users to gain actionable insights and make informed decisions effectively. We are also adding a Portfolio AI Copilot (PAT), accessible via a chat window. With PAT, portfolio managers can submit queries in natural language. From analytics on net returns and performance comparisons to assessments of specific securities or diversification, the AI Copilot interprets these questions, makes API calls to the portfolio database, synthesizes pertinent market news, and delivers dynamic responses.

Let's Invest Together! ('Lit') is a mobile investment game and winner of IMAS 2021 DAP- Gamification for Better Investment Decisions Challenge. Lit helps the investing public better understand basic investment principles integrating them into a fun and fast-moving investment game. Aimed at both the young and old, the game makes use of actual market data to help investors understand concepts such as asset classes, asset allocation and its performances, risk-reward profile, investment risk profiling and importance of diversification.

The team at Optimai are dedicated to the product that they developed. This can be seen from the progress they have made from an investment data warehouse solution for wealth and asset managers to a full-fledge solution.

Their recent product development showed many new features that target various user groups in the fund management and addresses not only data management but to business end users. It even incorporates GenAI capability! Both Khim Peow and Sok Keng are well tuned to the developments in the sector and have great depth in their understanding and delivery. I hope that they team can address challenges that businesses in the industry today are facing from the mentoring sessions with us.
