Subscribe to our newsletter

ING Investment Management Americas, the US investment arm of ING Group, has used Microsoft technology to implement a database to help its employees manage, access and analyse investment data from a range of data sources. Using Microsoft Windows Server System products including SQL Server 2005, .Net Framework 2.0 and ASP.Net, ING has created the Relative Value Appliction, which analyses securities to determine
their investment potential, streamlining how investment firms manage and use reference data. The application gives ING employees the ability to retrieve data from multiple places, perform complex transformations and distribute the data to multiple destinations, as well as to fulfil reporting requirements.
