OTCFin’s PRIIPS solution is already fully integrated with Morningstar’s Document Management System and Way Fund Managers will be able to receive both the calculated data and the final
factsheets for all their funds. In addition, Way Fund Managers’s risk and portfolio management teams will have a comprehensive and systematic view of their assets to perform their risk and performance analyses as well as meet PRIIPS Kids regulatory requirements.

transparency, computations and PRIIPS service offering.

Ee Wah Lim, Managing Director of OTCFin, notes: “We are extremely pleased to work with Morningstar to provide Way Fund Manager our PRIIPS solution and data management expertise and expect to on-board them promptly to start producing factsheets way before the PRIIPS implementation deadline
