COMGEST selects SimCorp to replace their front-to-back office group platform

Jan-Peter DOLFF – Chief Operating Officer, Managing Director, COMGEST GROUP, comments: “COMGEST, requiring greater deployment flexibility and functionality, has decided to replace its Front-to-Back system with SimCorp Dimension and Gain data management solutions, both cloud hosted platforms. These changes are driven by a need for a common platform to improve synergies between all business units and to improve scalability, capacity for industrialization, and time to market for future needs. 

We are delighted to have selected SimCorp and we appreciate their willingness to develop specific workflows for COMGEST. With this partnership, we aim to continue focusing on our single objective of delivering and servicing quality growth portfolios for our investors and clients, contributing to the overall and continuing success of COMGEST.” 

Hans Otto Engkilde, Executive Vice President and Managing Director, SimCorp EMEA, comments: “We are very pleased to welcome COMGEST to the fast-growing global community of clients choosing SimCorp Dimension and Gain including our new cloud offer with Azure. We are increasingly seeing asset managers move their data and technology strategy to the core of the business to unlock their transformative potential and drive competitive advantage. SimCorp’s history and deep expertise in these areas puts us in a strong position to support COMGEST at a time where increasing client and market expectations need to be matched with informed investment decisions backed by accurate data and agile operating models that support growth.”

The partnership with COMGEST further solidifies SimCorp’s position in France following the agreement with Crédit Mutuel Asset Management earlier this year, and more broadly highlights SimCorp’s continued commitment to the asset management industry with over 100 clients globally.

COMGEST, an independent, international asset management group headquartered in Paris and with offices globally, is characterized by its unique approach to quality growth in the long term through its unconstrained style across all equity portfolios. It serves a diverse client base of long-term-oriented investors around the globe.
