SIT Announces Support for New CANNEX Initiatives
Toronto, Canada – September 13, 2006: Strategic Information Technology Limited (“SIT”) is pleased to
announce support for upcoming CANNEX functionality.
“This new CANNEX functionality will enable the automation of early redemptions of cashable GICs ,
the re-registration and transfer of GICs, as well as month position reconciliation”,
says G. Robert Leeming, president of SIT. “These enhancements will dramatically increase the
throughput of Term Deposit, GIA, and GIC business for high volume brokers, dealers,
and financial institutions.”
The CANNEX Financial Network (CFN) facilitates the purchase of GICs, Term Deposits
and GIAs electronically, with 30 participating financial institutions.
Portfolio Plus first introduced CANNEX functionality in 1998 and
has continued to incorporate new functionality as it has become available.
“SIT has been an ardent supporter of CANNEX efforts to automate the processing of GIC
and Term applications. We appreciate their continued innovation and input into the development of
new CANNEX features”, said Alex Melvin, Co-Founder and President of CANNEX.
“We expect these features to be available before the end of 2006.”
