Inside Market Data names SunGard Data Management Vendor of the Year

SunGard Data Management Solutions, an operating group of SunGard, today announced that Inside Market Data has named FAME "Data Management Vendor of the Year" for the second consecutive year. FAME was acquired by SunGard in January 2004, and is now part of SunGard Data Management Solutions. FAME was cited for having formed new partnerships and released new products in 2003, particularly its referencePoint solution for enterprise data management.

Inside Market Data (IMD) is published by the Risk Waters Group, a division of Incisive Media Plc. The "Data Management Vendor of the Year" distinction was awarded to SunGard at the recent IMD 2004 Awards banquet. Nominees were selected by Inside Market Data's editorial staff, and winners were decided via an online ballot by IMD's readers in March, 2004.

"We're very pleased that the industry has chosen to recognize our accomplishments in data management for the second year in a row," commented Dale Richards, president of SunGard Data Management Solutions' FAME operating unit. "We've worked hard over the past year to position referencePoint as one of the industry's leading solutions to the challenge of efficiently managing pricing, research and reference data."
