Most major financial companies in North America are using EISI's NaviPlan software
With its corporate headquarters in Winnipeg, Canada's third-largest financial centre and
home to a number of financial powerhouses, EISI
has become the leading software developer for most
major companies in North America, writes Geoff
Kirbyson in his "Insight" column in the July issue of Investment Executive.
Canada ’s biggest mutual fund company, Investors Group Ltd.; its parent, IGM Financial; and its corporate sister, insurer Great-West Life Assurance Co., are all based in Winnipeg. Reports Kirbyson: "The (financial) sector’s growth in Winnipeg has spawned opportunities for firms such as Emerging Information Systems Inc."
Investors Group and Great West Life are both clients of EISI. Mark Evans, president and CEO of EISI, says: “We’ve proven to the community and the market we can grow our business based in Winnipeg. There’s a strong technical resource pool and a financial services pool from which to draw."
EISI is projected to have revenue of about $20 million this year, a 50% jump from last year, and its employee count is currently near 250, up from just seven employees in 1995.
