AIA Group has incorporated BlackRock’s investment platform Aladdin with BNY’s data management services to administer the Asia-focused life insurer’s investment programme.

The move represents a transformation of the insurer’s end-to-end investment processes, echoing a broader trend towards the outsourcing of data management services by asset managers and owners.

The company said the collaboration with Aladdin and BNY “will provide AIA with an end-to-end solution, empowering the group’s investment professionals with enhanced data and analytics capability, and more robust risk management tools”.

Asset managers are increasingly seeking third-party expertise as the complexity of their data management requirements have intensified, according to recent surveys. This has been driven by the adoption of multi-asset investment strategies to navigate growing market volatility and to comply with emerging regulations.

AIA Group chief investment officer Mark Konyn said that the insurer “will gain a single, consistent, and timely view across all asset classes allowing us to make even more informed investments across complex market environments”.
