IVAAR'S CO-FOUNDERS
Andrew Caird
Andrew first worked in software during the dotcom era providing custom application development for IBMs AS400 customers.
From 2001 he spent six years with Euraplan Limited, a London-based software house whose products integrated with asset managers and market data vendors to provide fund accounting and investment monitoring systems for pension schemes. While at Euraplan Andrew designed and developed a cloud-based, multi-tenancy transaction cost analysis tool.
In 2008 Andrew launched his own software company, which specialised in cloud-based data management, reconciliation, performance and reporting services for pension schemes. The intellectual property was sold to Ortec Finance in 2011.
He joined DST (later acquired by SS&C) and became the Regional Solutions Manager for EMEA and North America, working on data management and analytical solutions with the world’s largest asset and wealth managers.
Andrew founded IVAAR in 2016 with a vision of changing the way investment managers move data around their organisations.
Steve Andrew
Steve has worked in the software industry since 1982 when he set up a company supplying computer software to insurance brokers.
He successfully built this business into a substantial public company with some 300 customers and over 80 staff. The company was sold to Misys PLC for over £3 million in 1995.
He has since established and grown a number of other successful technology-based businesses, with a proven record of identifying commercial opportunities that make use of leading edge technology.
Steve became a co-founder of IVAAR after hearing of investment managers’ struggles with middle office technology issues caused by old technology and vendors who operate in silos.
