Baloise Asset Management sees major performance improvement with SimCorp’s SaaS

As a EUR 60 billion AUM asset manager, Baloise Asset Management faced a familiar challenge for any growing asset manager: how to modernize their technology infrastructure without disrupting operations. They needed a solution that would improve performance, free their small IT team from infrastructure management and provide a scalable architecture to support business expansion. As a SimCorp client for more than 20 years, they turned to us to support this need. SimCorp's SaaS offering provided exactly that - enabling Baloise to modernize their operations while maintaining the platform they knew and trusted with built-in scalability for future growth.
