SimCorp, a leading provider of investment management solutions and services for the global financial services industry, has announced that Swiss-based investment firm Vontobel Asset Management has selected SimCorp Coric to automate its Client Communications and Fund Reporting processes.

Vontobel will deploy SimCorp Coric as a hosted solution via Microsoft Azure and the agreement, signed at the end of December 2016, will see the Coric solution replace in-house manual processes as well as an existing incumbent third-party solution.

Stuart Keeler, Managing Director of SimCorp Coric, said: “Vontobel’s selection of SimCorp Coric as a long-term business partner demonstrates the firm’s recognition of technology as a key business driver. The flexibility the platform delivers in terms of functionality and the ability to handle Client Identifying Data (CID) will help Vontobel expand into new territories to realize its growth ambitions. We look forward to working with them on this exciting initiative.
