We are delighted to announce that FINBOURNE Technology has won the Best Enterprise Data Management Initiative at the WatersTechnology Inside Market Data & Inside Reference Data Awards 2026, judged by WatersTechnology’s editorial team and senior industry figures.

The award recognises our work with OMBA Advisory & Investments. Together, we replaced manual processes across more than 15 custodians and thousands of client portfolios with automated data operations, built on a single investment book of record (IBOR).

OMBA’s morning data operations now run automatically, monthly reporting that took 10-12 hours is close to fully automated, and rebalancing across 1.2m positions takes one or two days. OMBA also runs FINBOURNE agents in production, reducing its operational burden by at least 20%.

Thank you to WatersTechnology and the judges, to David Pierson and the OMBA team for their partnership, and to everyone at FINBOURNE.
