Linedata helps Lux insurer handle large volumes

The firm is using Linedata Chorus which was designed specifically for the fund accounting and administration of institutional collective portfolios.

Mobiliar replaces legacy systems with Xentis
Switzerland’s Schweizerische Mobiliar Asset Management has implemented Profidata’s Xentis investment management system to manage assets in its insurance, pensions and fund management businesses.
Mobiliar, which manages around 20 billion Swiss francs, has effectively replaced various legacy applications and made several interfaces redundant with the new system. The system also automates numerous tasks that were previously performed manually.
Sven Rump, managing director of the asset manager, said: “We have achieved our goals of automating asset management for our insurance, pension scheme and fund management activities in just one system, and performing them efficiently.”
