New release of Greenjar

April 2005

The latest release of Greenjar, Peresys' award winning RiXML research management application is now available. Greenjar Version 3.1 is web-based and designed to create, facilitate and manage broker research in the investment community.

The product provides a wholesale RiXML-compliant solution to both the buy- and sell-sides. Greenjar is typically used by the sell-side or broker to create a RiXML-compliant file to accompany a research document in original PDF or Word format and distribute both to the buy side or asset managers. Asset managers or buy side firms use Greenjar to receive and manage RiXML-compliant research as well as create and manage their own internal research.

Version 3.1 GUI has changed extensively and the new look Peresys branding compliments a more user friendly browser interface. The application offers the following improved functionality;

Search Functionality - a search engine with both a simple and advanced query building capability to access the RiXML data in the database and to retrieve original research documents from a server repository.
Research Creation - a workflow tagging process where by users can create their own RiXML file based on the Greenjar RiXML Rules of Engagement.
A Dissemination Manager to manage and disseminate research to the local database and respective clients via e-mail.
An automated Cataloguer Service that receives RiXML and original research files through mail and FTP. It captures the RiXML data in a database and saves the original file to a server repository.
Administration or static data tables to manage; analysts, trading exchanges, sectors, share codes, dissemination lists etc.
Personal Settings to personalise each user's interface.
