Today, servicing this continuously growing Investment Management community, CYMBA’s clients successfully process transactions valued at trillions of US$ annually on the Athena IMS Platform.

CYMBA believes that this acquisition enables the further innovation of its core Athena IMS and Centurion products, expands support for the workflow of buy-side investment professionals, and allows for full integration of its compliance solutions with the FactSet suite of applications.

Commenting on the contribution of Goldenhill, JP Cunningham, Partner & Co-Founder of CYMBA said:

“We were pleased to work closely with Goldenhill during the last two years to position the company for sale, culminating in the sale process itself. We chose to work with Goldenhill because of their focus in the Fintech sector, their relevant business and transaction experience, and strong relationships with the key buyers in Fintech space which ultimately resulted in the successful transaction with FactSet, who we believe will provide an excellent platform for the next round of growth of the business and staff.”
