Our History

Founded in 1999, ClearStructure was formed to further the development and marketing of a portfolio management system originally created at a Connecticut-based asset management firm.

The team which founded ClearStructure Financial Technology was formerly the IT group at Atlantic Asset Management (AAM) in Stamford, Connecticut. While working for AAM this group developed a portfolio management system, called Sentry, to better assist AAM in the management and operational tasks for their fixed income accounts.

In 1998 AAM issued its first CDO and the necessary functionality to manage the fund was added to Sentry. In 1999 the team relocated to Danbury Connecticut and Atlantic Information Services was formed (the firm would later changed its name to ClearStructure Financial Technology) to continue the development and marketing of Sentry.

After several years of growth in the US, in 2006 ClearStructure Financial Technology established a presence in Europe by opening an office in London to serve ClearStructure's growing European client base. Today with a foundation of top EMEA-based asset managers and financial institutions as clients, ClearStructure continues to expand in EMEA.

In 2009 ClearStructure released its first product built specifically for the sell-side. Sentry LT, for bank loan trading, was built using the latest technology and continues the tradition of ClearStructure delivering next generation applications to the financial industry.

Today ClearStructure has offices in Danbury CT, Houston TX and London England. Our clients number among the largest and most well-respected financial institutions in the world. We utilize our more than 10 years of direct experience as a firm serving financial professionals to deliver products which emphasize flexibility, integration and automation.
