Sony Life Insurance has selected SimCorp One as its core investment management platform, a move it says helps it reduce complexity in its investment infrastructure.
The platform will provide Sony Life’s investment teams with centralised, real-time data, and capabilities across the investment lifecycle, supporting the firm’s business requirements.
SimCorp says its platform addresses challenges facing insurers in the region, including increasing regulatory complexity, the need for operational efficiency, and demand for integrated solutions that support both public and private market investments.
The platform’s unified data layer strengthens governance, auditability, and data integrity, while supporting Japan-specific accounting standards, including Japanese Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and International Financial Reporting Standards.
The platform will be deployed in Microsoft Azure data centers in Japan to meet local data residency, regulatory, and audit requirements.
Delivery and ongoing support will combine SimCorp’s experience with local capabilities through its Japanese distribution and implementation partner, NS Solutions Corporation.
Edward Bee, senior managing director, head of APAC, SimCorp remarks: “We are proud to partner with Sony Life. SimCorp’s unified data layer delivers real-time insights, helping Sony Life make better decisions and operate with confidence.”
