eShare and Montae take UK's Leading Governance Software to Dutch Pension Funds
eShare and Montae Bestuurscentrum have joined forces to take eShare’s award winning governance software to Holland. eShare offers a flexible web based solution to raise standards of governance whilst at the same time reducing cost and making life easier for Trustees, risk mangers, secretariat and pension managers alike.
eShare market leader
eShare is the UK’s market leader and the only independent provider of Governance Software. Over the last 4 years eShare has been revolutionising the way UK pension schemes are governed. eShare helps manage many different governance processes including risk management, decision making, the business plan, trustee meetings, knowledge, member communications and conflicts of interest amongst others. Due to their continuing software developments and dedication to improving standards of governance eShare have just been awarded “Pensions Software Provider of the Year” at the UK Pensions Awards.
Montae Bestuurscentrum: “Building better boards”
Montae Bestuurscentrum’s primary focus is on helping Boards improve their effectiveness. Promoting the use of eShare is a natural extension of its services which range from conducting self assessments to providing independent secretarial, operational and strategic support to pension fund boards.
“Life has been made more complex for board members. We aim to make their life easier, whilst improving board effectiveness. We are here to help board members; providing tools is an integral part of our programme: building better boards. We are proud and excited to be able to offer tried and tested software to Dutch Pension Fund Boards.” said Sander Baars, managing director of Montae Bestuurscentrum.
eShare works
The complete eShare package is being offered to Dutch pension schemes, administrators and advisers for their clients. Montae will help market the software and support implementation where required although schemes are free to use their own advisers if they prefer.
“We have been developing eShare software for 4 years now to do more to make life easier in all aspects of governance. What we have been doing is just as relevant to Dutch pension schemes as their UK counterparts. It’s great that we can transport all those efforts so simply to The Netherlands.” said eShare Managing Director Alister Esam. “It’s a win win situation and ultimately the schemes benefit the most through Montae’s pensions expertise and the multitude of benefits which eShare has to offer as an independent provider. We are all excited by this opportunity and are looking forward to getting the project underway.”
