The Japanese insurer, which held approximately JPY 17trn in total assets as of the end of March 2026, will deploy SimCorp One as its front-to-back investment infrastructure, giving its investment teams access to centralised, real-time data and capabilities spanning the full investment lifecycle.
SimCorp One is designed to address challenges commonly faced by insurers across the Asia-Pacific region, including growing regulatory demands, the pressure to improve operational efficiency, and the requirement for integrated solutions covering both public and private market investments. The platform’s unified data layer is built to enhance governance, auditability and data integrity, while also accommodating Japan-specific accounting frameworks such as J-GAAP and IFRS.
The deployment will be hosted within Microsoft Azure data centres located in Japan, ensuring compliance with local data residency, regulatory and audit obligations. SimCorp will deliver and support the implementation in collaboration with NS Solutions Corporation, its Japanese distribution and implementation partner.
SimCorp senior managing director and head of APAC Edward Bee said, “We are proud to partner with Sony Life. SimCorp One’s unified data layer delivers real-time insights, helping Sony Life make better decisions and operate with confidence.
