Danish Pension Company Velliv Implements CuriumEDM for ESG Data Management

Subscribe to our newsletter

Velliv, a Danish pension and insurance company, has implemented Curium Data Systems’ enterprise data management solution, CuriumEDM, to manage the processing of its ESG data and ensure it can accommodate expanding regulatory and commercial requirements around ESG datasets.

Curium’s initial target at Velliv is to address the ingestion, aggregation, mastering and quality control of ESG data. Velliv plans to expand its use of Curium over time and build out similar data processing models for its other investment datasets including benchmarks, prices and other key investment data.

“We realised some time ago that our expanding universe of ESG data sources would necessitate a new data management approach around how we ingest and work with the datasets prior to the data entering our main portfolio and accounting systems,” says Kasper Moller Deleuran, head of middle office at Velliv. “In our selection process, Curium demonstrated that it had a lot of features to support ESG data processing and that its adoption would be both economical and timely.”

Mat King, implementations director at Curium, adds: “ESG data is a driver for firms like Velliv to invest in data management components such as Curium. Growth in cloud-based data lakes and similar technologies means obtaining and storing data is no longer an issue. Good processing and data fabric tools like Curium ensure firms can work confidently with the data, secure in the knowledge that access to, and quality of, the data is being managed effectively.”
