Case Study: Bank of Thailand achieves improved operational efficiency and stronger risk controls with SimCorp Dimension (SimCorp)

Tackling operational efficiency and reducing risk

Bank of Thailand, Thailand’s central bank managing USD 226 billion in foreign reserves, faced a need to improve operational efficiency and reduce risk across its dealing room, which supports investment activity, settlement and risk management. After thorough due diligence the Bank selected SimCorp and its SimCorp Dimension investment management platform to address these challenges.

SimCorp implemented SimCorp Dimension to replace four disparate systems and more than 10 manual Excel-driven processes, consolidating accounting into a single general ledger and one data set across front and back office. The go‑live—delivered on time and on budget—raised straight‑through‑processing rates, strengthened pre‑trade compliance, increased rules automation by 20% and boosted daily reconciliations, enabling the Bank of Thailand to take on multi‑asset investments and gain a more holistic, better‑governed view of its reserves.
