Marathon Asset Management has leveraged SimCorp’s investment management platform, SimCorp One, to consolidate its front-to-back investment infrastructure.

The expansion marks an extension of Marathon and SimCorp’s ongoing partnership, initially established in 2010, and will see the asset manager retiring its legacy systems and establishing a single data layer across the firm.
“SimCorp understands both our operational and front office needs, which made unifying our front-to-back workflows on a single platform a clear decision,” said Andy Flawn, head of operations, technology, change and data at Marathon Asset Management.
“Lowering cost and risk through system consolidation was a key factor. Our partnership continues to deliver meaningful technology improvements that drive operational efficiency.”

Specifically, the collaboration supports Marathon’s efforts to focus on operational efficiency, data consistency and scalable investment operations, to allow the firm to spend less time on data reconciliation and technology management, and greater client service engagement and investment decisions.
“We’re proud to deepen our long-term partnership with Marathon,” said Dean McIntyre, chief commercial officer at SimCorp.
“SimCorp One automates key processes across the investment lifecycle, giving Marathon the operational efficiency to scale.”
In addition, the partnership follows a wider shift among asset managers looking to consolidate their technology vendors and platforms across their operations.
Most recently, Pictet Asset Management selected SimCorp to simplify its trading and operations technology platform.
The move, which was revealed by The TRADE in October 2025, is set to bolster the firm’s trade execution, as well as portfolio management across its investment teams.
