Case Study: KBC Asset Management achieves 90% higher currency throughput and 50% faster portfolio rebalancing with SimCorp Dimension (SimCorp)

Growth drives need for integrated front office solution at KBC Asset Management

KBC Asset Management, the Brussels-based asset manager with EUR 200bn AUM, faced unsustainable complexity and growth-driven strain from numerous in‑house tools and fragmented workflows. To support expanding product lines and client segments, KBC Asset Management selected SimCorp and its SimCorp Dimension integrated front office solution to replace bespoke applications and future‑proof operations.

SimCorp implemented SimCorp Dimension as an integrated front office platform, enabling KBC Asset Management to fully automate currency flows (increasing throughput by 90%), cut portfolio rebalancing time for private mandates by 50%, retire more than 50 in‑house tools, and run daily performance attribution; KBC now plans to extend SimCorp Dimension integration and consolidation into the back office.
