AtlasClear Holdings Now Has Fully Owned IP to
Cloud-based Front and Middleware Technology
AtlasClear Holdings, Inc. (“AtlasClear Holdings”) (NYSE: ATCH)
today announced its acquisition and initiation of the integration
into its operations of clearing and settlement code from Pacsquare
Technologies, LLC (https://www.pacsquare.com/).
Following the closing of the business combination (the “Business
Combination”) between AtlasClear, Inc. (“AtlasClear”) and Quantum
FinTech Acquisition Corporation (“Quantum”), AtlasClear entered
into and consummated an acquisition agreement with Pacsquare for
front and middleware applications (the “Pacsquare Technology”), as
contemplated by a previously disclosed letter of agreement between
AtlasClear and Pacsquare. The Pacsquare Technology is expected to
provide greater customer experience and lead to scalable expansion
through its cloud-based technology. Once fully integrated,
AtlasClear Holdings believes the Pacsquare Technology will enhance
its system modularity and maintainability, making its
infrastructure easier to update and more efficient to run, replace,
or scale individual components without affecting the entire
system.
“We are very excited about the advantages we expect to realize
from the acquisition and integration of the Pacsquare Technology,”
said Robert McBey, Chief Executive Officer of AtlasClear Holdings.
“Once fully integrated, we believe our system cost will be lower,
our customers will experience faster adaptability, and our
infrastructure will be ready for distributed assets and AI
robo-advisory, while allowing expanded risk management for our
future portfolio margin offering. The acquisition of the Pacsquare
Technology is also expected to allow correspondents of AtlasClear
to gather assets by leveraging technology and the latest trading
tools and can potentially help set AtlasClear apart by
incorporating vertically integrated cloud-native trading solutions
and technology.”
