The agreement would enable Praemium to continue to provide the service to Morgan Stanley Smith Barney until at least July 2014, Praemium group chief executive Arthur Naoumidis said.
"I am proud of our six-year relationship with Morgan Stanley Smith Barney and delighted that the extension of our agreement allows us to continue to deliver to them our first-class portfolio administration services. Morgan Stanley Smith Barney executes trades for and provides research to a large number of Australian financial advisers as well as to their own investors," Naoumidis said.
