Modular, cloud-native wealth & trust management suite from SS&C combining the Black Diamond Wealth Platform with CRM, trading & rebalancing, investment management, compliance & surveillance, trust/retirement, alternative-investment servicing, unique assets and operations/billing. Most capabilities are licensed as separate modules or services on top of the core portfolio management & reporting platform; alternative investments, trust/retirement, unique assets, compliance & surveillance and investment management are add-ons rather than part of a basic deployment.
