Aquin was founded in 1993 as a consultancy company with a team of
economists, computer specialists, and mathematicians, and quickly
expanded across Europe providing financial institutions with expert
solutions, innovative technologies and investment management expertise.
As a result of its investment consulting success, Aquin took the
decisive step in 1997 to develop its own products.
Aquin
Components was established in 1999 for this purpose to provide
Best-of-Breed software products to the international investment
managment industry. Since its inception Aquin has grown internationally
acquiring "blue-chip" clients and establishing operations throughout
Europe.
Aquin has capitalised on its long-standing experience and core
competencies in the highly regulated and divergent European investment
environment to be recognised as the leading software provider and
innovation driver of investment compliance solutions across Europe. With
its compliance monitoring product MIG21 Aquin is market leader in
Europe. Also RBK, established market standard for regulatory reporting
in Germany, is gaining increasing market share in Europe.
From December 2005 to September 2008, ViewPoint
Ventures was a shareholder of Aquin Components providing a
foundation for continuous growth on an international level. During this period Aquin successfully penetrated European markets and developed new markets in the USA and Asia.
In October 2008, Princeton Financial Systems has acquired all outstanding stock of Aquin Components and Viewpoint steps out as shareholder. Princeton Financial, a subsidiary of State Street Corporation, is a leading provider of portfolio management and accounting solutions for global intitutional investors.
