Your Benefits

  • Advanced System Architecture
    Based on Windows NT technology, PAM utilizes object-oriented design techniques and relational database technology, creating a system architecture that is scalable and able to adopt new technologies as they mature. PAM's flexible design allows workflows to be configured to match your organization's requirements for security and audit control, providing individual logons and passwords; security profiles allowing access to specific functions and capabilities; read-only user access; and PAMLOG, a complete date and time stamp record of all database access and data changes.

  • Straight Through Processing
    Princeton Financial Systems has leveraged its advanced technology and extensive knowledge of the accounting requirements of diverse markets to provide PAM's new unique solution for multiple-accounting bases. This solution will create greater efficiencies for your organization because all of your accounting bases will be on one system, eliminating the need for you to work with separate systems whose data quickly becomes outdated.

  • Broad Instrument Coverage
    PAM provides investment coverage for a broad range of investment strategies. PAM supports many types of traditional and non-traditional investment instruments, including derivatives, futures, options, forwards, swaps and private placements.

  • Robust and Flexible Reporting Capabilities
    PAM gives you the flexible and powerful reporting tools you need, with an integrated report writer and graphics package for standard reports, import and export modules for data management, and the PAM Software Developers Kit for customized reports. These flexible reporting capabilities enable you to handle all security types, investment strategy P&L and consolidated multi-fund roll-ups.

  • Easy Internal and External Integration
    PAM not only gives you an integrated system that eliminates the need for interfaces among your front, middle and back offices, it also makes it easy to interface with other analytic and quantitative packages, trading systems, market data providers and custodial systems. In particular, PAM's open architecture allows for easy interfaces to prime brokerages and partnership accounting vendors.

  • Comprehensive Accounting Functionality
    PAM performs all accounting processes with speed and precision. It contains a complete set of user-defined rules that determine the proper accounting treatment and valuation (i.e., mark-tomarket, amortization method, lot selection, spread pricing, etc.). PAM's accounting capabilities also include multi-currency processing, private placements, fixed-income processing and an integrated general ledger. One of PAM's many competitive advantages is its trial balance and NAV calculation features.

  • Available as an ASP Solution
    PAM offers you an opportunity to run a functionally robust investment management system without the overhead of an inhouse data center. Through a web browser, you can have realtime access to ePAM, our ASP solution. Princeton Financial Systems assumes responsibility for the PAM software, hardware capitalization, network and applications management while providing you with round-the-clock support. We provide high levels of security, performance and reliability through our experienced staff and sophisticated Data Center.
