IMConnecting Uses Latest Web 2.0 Technologies to Provide a Market-leading User Experience; Solution to be Demonstrated on iPad at Sibos 2010 in Amsterdam

LONDON, October 25, 2010 - Information Mosaic, the global provider of advanced post-trade
automation solutions, has today launched its new IMConnecting(TM) solution to
provide a next generation, interactive channel to the post-trade environment
for front office and client users. The solution provides a sophisticated, Web
2.0 user experience, including mail box, chat features, touch-screen and
handheld device compatibility and will be demonstrated on an iPad at Sibos
2010.

Developed in collaboration with customer user groups, and
already in beta at a global financial services institution, IMConnecting
provides a multi-lingual, self-service window that puts end users in control,
enabling them to improve decision making with trend and what-if analyses.
Alerts and notifications are pushed to users by custom-set rules and
processing is sped up using default instruction preferences.

IMConnecting streamlines business and customer reporting and
communication, delivering transparency and reducing the error risk and cost
of administrating portfolios for asset servicing firms. The solution can be
white-labelled and integrated seamlessly with an institution's existing
internet portals ensuring a consistent brand experience.

"The focus on improving investor empowerment, communication
and transparency demands a change in how post-trade information is
disseminated and used. Our clients' front office and external clients need
more visibility, they need to be able to analyse their portfolios, be
notified of urgent actions wherever they are and be able to take action
quickly and directly through electronic channels," says John Byrne, CEO
Information Mosaic. "What we are doing with IMConnecting is providing that
interactive link with the post-trade environment but with a focus on
delivering a market-beating user experience. This is about adapting to how
people now work, their need to have user-centric applications that help
prioritise tasks and the ability to work anytime, anywhere, on any mobile
device. By using the very latest internet technologies, we're bringing the
post-trade world into line with emerging, more sophisticated online channels.
At the same time implementing state of the art security principles."

Example applications of the new solution include:

    - Corporate Actions: Users can view and analyse corporate actions data
      with the benefit of 'what if' analysis and make decisions closer to
      final deadlines due to the efficiencies of electronic decision
      capture, allowing them a thorough assessment of market conditions.

    - Proxy Voting: Electronic communication combined with an e-voting
      infrastructure connects shareholders with proxies, proactively
      providing information about proxy events and alert deadlines. The
      system also automatically collates votes and declares results.

    - Custody: Users can analyse and value their portfolios and instruct
      trades electronically through this central communications hub,
      removing error risk from manual data entry and reducing the cost of
      administrating portfolios.

Information Mosaic will demonstrate IMConnecting(TM) on booth
C215 at Sibos 2010, 25-29 October 2010, Amsterdam. To pre-book an appointment
for a demonstration, please contact: sibos@informationmosaic.com.
