The partnership is set to build on AllianceBernstein’s existing technology, by incorporating all-in-one investment management platform, SimCorp One into its core front-to-back infrastructure.
Specifically, the offering is set to provide AllianceBernstein investment teams with greater access to centralised and real-time data, through both market-leading and proprietary trading tools.
“We look forward to transforming our firm’s existing infrastructure to empower our investment teams, serve our global clients, and scale for the future,” said Karl Sprules, chief operating officer of AllianceBernstein.
“Through SimCorp One, AllianceBernstein’s front-, middle-, and back-office platforms will be unified on a single, cutting-edge investment platform.”
