“The industry of pension and retirement investing is moving faster than ever with new technology and new demands from our clients, a partnership with FIS works very well for both parties and allows Quai to enhance its already market leading infrastructure and services, which is why we sought a solution that we knew would carry us into the future,” said Tony Webb, CEO at Quai Digital. “FIS will allow us to redouble our focus on our clients while we can trust the technology can meet our needs as we continue to grow our business and support the FIS expansion into Pensions.”
