"As we expand our business, we, once again, chose SS&C because of their proven expertise and success in providing both software solutions and fund administration services for alternative investment firms just like ours."
"We are pleased to be trusted by Wexford as their independent administrator," said Bill Stone, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, SS&C Technologies, Inc. "Once the decision was made by Wexford to go with SS&C, we had the administrative services for the first of four funds up and in production within 30 days.
