DealVector Named “Best Newcomer” at 2013 Buy-Side Technology Awards

NEW YORK, NY, November 4, 2013 — DealVector, provider of the first secure electronic communication network for the fixed income and structured credit space, today announced that it was selected as the winner in the “Best Buy-Side Newcomer” category in the 2013 Buy-Side Technology Awards.

“The primary issue we were looking to alleviate when we launched earlier this year was the communication blockage that investors in the structured credit and fixed income markets have been facing, and so far we have been successful in addressing that problem,” said Mike Manning, CEO and co-founder of DealVector. “Buy-side alternative asset investors are DealVector’s primary target audience, so being recognized as the best newcomer in a buy-side focused award is great for the growth of our business.”

DealVector provides a confidential deal registry, secure online communication platform, and validated membership base that make it easy to answer the question “Who’s in my deal?” DealVector matches highly qualified, validated participants on a deal-by-deal basis. Members preserve their anonymity, but can be confident that they are dealing with validated deal parties. By enabling direct connections among investors, collateral managers, counterparties, broker-dealers and others, DealVector helps to eliminate information blockages and improve communication efficiency.
