Credit Suisse calls SS&C a top idea in vertical software

After hosting meetings with management, Credit Suisse analyst Kevin McVeigh says SS&C Technologies is one of the firm’s top ideas in vertical software. SS&C offers investors a "unique opportunity to benefit from disruption in financial services fueled by substantial data needs amid growing asset complexity," the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm believes the company offers a well positioned, predictable model and a favorable risk/reward. It keeps an Outperform rating on the shares with a $78 price target.
