Using technology to improve efficiency

EZOPS Founder and CEO Sarva Srinivasan was aware that there were age-old inefficiencies across the full range of market participants, asset classes and business processes. The company brought together a blend of decades of financial services experience with cutting-edge technology to eliminate these. The result: a company which harnesses the power of machine learning and intelligent process automation to manage all aspects of data control, including reconstruction, reconciliation, research, remediation and reporting, at some of the world’s largest financial institutions.

• What in your opinion makes Malta an effective jurisdiction to set up a business?

Malta is an effective jurisdiction to set up a business because of the forward thinking, collaborative nature of the companies and regulatory bodies. Given Malta’s focus on finance and specifically the fund industry, we believe that establishing ourselves as a unique partner to firms based in Malta can help us advance our business in Europe.

• What kind of people/companies in the financial services community would you want to connect with?

We would like to connect with fund administrators, banks and insurance companies but we can help any financial firm that is looking to digitise and automate data quality operations to add to their bottom line.BIO:Sarva Srinivasan is the Founder and CEO of EZOPS.
