So if you have a front to back office system, it goes to follow that you can build a much better app than if the underlying system only handles one piece of the investment process. If you don\u2019t handle all of the key pieces of the investment management process, then you probably have to partner with someone to build it for you (apparently what Eagle did), rather than doing it yourself because the systems you have to work with are not your own.<\/p>\n<p>While apps can be useful tools and very few would question the appeal of the tablet device for personal and professional use, savvy consumers in the institutional investment management space will look beyond the novelty of apps and instead look at what the underlying system provides.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This begs the question: Do apps really make a difference?
