Kamco Invest Strengthens Investment Operations with Bloomberg’s AIM and PORT Enterprise Solutions
Kamco Invest, one of the Middle East’s leading regional asset managers with approximately $17 billion in assets under management, has adopted Bloomberg’s AIM and PORT Enterprise solutions to streamline its investment processes, enhance operational efficiency, and mitigate risks.
The announcement was made by Bloomberg, a global leader in financial data and technology, highlighting its deepening collaboration with Kamco Invest. The integration of these advanced platforms aims to optimize the firm’s front and middle-office operations.
Comprehensive Front-to-Back Integration
Kamco Invest will leverage Bloomberg AIM, a widely adopted order and investment management system, to enhance its front-office processes—from order generation and trade execution to fund holdings reconciliation. Alongside AIM, PORT Enterprise will offer powerful portfolio and risk analytics, delivering data-driven insights that support strategic decision-making and client servicing.
“As one of the region’s largest asset managers, we continuously seek cutting-edge solutions to elevate our investment process,” said Salah Al Wuhaib, Managing Director of Equity and Fixed Income at Kamco Invest.
“The integration of Bloomberg AIM and PORT Enterprise not only strengthens our commitment to efficiency and data-driven decision-making but also enhances our ability to deliver value for our clients.”
Enhancing Decision-Making and Operational Resilience
The adoption of Bloomberg’s technology will significantly boost Kamco Invest’s capabilities across:
-
Portfolio management and construction
-
Electronic trading and optimization
-
Trade compliance and reconciliation
-
Corporate action processing
-
End-to-end integration with back-office systems and custodians
This digital transformation will help the asset manager scale its operations while maintaining high standards of transparency, compliance, and performance.
Rajiv Mirwani, Head of Middle East & Africa Sales at Bloomberg, commented:
“We are delighted to support Kamco Invest as they transform their investment operations. Our solutions are designed to empower asset managers to navigate an increasingly complex investment landscape with efficiency and precision.”
A Broader Strategic Relationship
This move builds on Kamco Invest’s long-standing use of Bloomberg Terminals and data services. With the integration of AIM and PORT Enterprise, the firm now benefits from a comprehensive and seamless buy-side technology suite, aligning with global standards of portfolio management.
