Case Study: KBC Asset Management achieves greater portfolio management capacity with SimCorp One by SimCorp

KBC Asset Management scales portfolio management capacity with SimCorp One

KBC Asset Management needed to scale its portfolio management operations while modernizing aging front-office systems and replacing a self-developed optimizer. The firm chose SimCorp One, combined with Axioma solutions, to create an integrated investment management platform with better technical performance, smoother API integration, and stronger usability.

SimCorp implemented a unified solution that now supports real-time monitoring, advanced risk optimization, shared data, and automated connections with custodians and brokers across multiple countries. As a result, KBC Asset Management significantly increased portfolio management capacity, improved cross-team collaboration across four operating countries, and achieved a notably smooth T+1 settlement transition compared with peers.
