BOISE, Idaho--(EON: Enhanced Online News)--Clearwater Analytics, a recognized leader in transparent,
outsourced, web-based, investment portfolio reporting and analytics for both separately managed and commingled
accounts, has been named a finalist for the 2010 Alexander Hamilton Award in the Solution of the Year category.
This marks the 15th year that Treasury & Risk has honored the best and the brightest from corporate America’s
treasury and finance departments. The Alexander Hamilton Best Practices Summit and Awards Program recognize
excellence in treasury management and finance at the nation’s top companies and multinationals with a strong U.S.
presence. The event takes place on October 28th and 29th in New York City.
Clearwater earned a spot among two other providers as the year’s best solution based on its submission detailing its
work with Cisco. Prior to engaging Clearwater Analytics, Cisco’s investment accounting and reporting drew from
multiple sources. Asset managers tasked with ensuring the company’s investment portfolio rendered consistently
positive results were simultaneously tasked with reporting on their own performance, while employing their own set
of metrics. As a result, Cisco felt it was always at “arm’s length” from its portfolio. Since it could no longer maintain
this status quo, nor could it develop an internal process from the ground up, Cisco looked to outsourced options.
Clearwater’s Operating Fund Analytics required no software installation, no new equipment, no maintenance and
minimal training for accounting and investment team staffers. In addition, Clearwater provided a dedicated account
manager and daily-reconciled reporting and analytics on a 24-hour, web-based view of Cisco’s portfolio across
accounting, compliance, performance and risk modules. Most importantly, Cisco would be able to monitor the
performance of all its asset managers aga
