BNP Paribas to provide dealing and middle office outsourcing services to ABN Amro Investment Solutions

ABN Amro Investment Solutions has chosen BNP Paribas’s Securities Services business for the provision of a range of dealing and middle office outsourcing services, which will be connected via BlackRock’s portfolio management software Aladdin.

Through the partnership aligned with ABN Amro’s 2026 strategic plan, BNP Paribas’s Securities Services teams will provide ABN Amro Investment Solutions with a fully integrated investment management solution across its front and middle office, supported by BlackRock Aladdin.

The technology platform is used by ABN Amro Investment Solutions to unify its investment management processes.

It builds on an existing partnership between the two companies, with BNP Paribas’s Securities Services business already providing the asset management firm with dealing desk services to execute trades and source liquidity.

Arnaud Claudon, head of asset owners and managers client lines, Securities Services at BNP Paribas, said: “We want to provide our clients with innovative solutions that enable them to seamlessly connect their front, middle and back office and eliminate the risks that come with duplication of information and repetitive manual inputs.”

Claudon said that its clients can now use BlackRock Aladdin to inform investment decisions across asset classes while taking advantage of its middle and back-office capabilities and “multi-local expertise in a fully integrated end-to-end investment management environment”.

Elisa Alonso Sanz, chief operating officer at ABN Amro Investment Solutions, said of its decision to select BNP Paribas: “This connectivity between our front and middle office will help us enhance operational efficiency and speed up trade processing.

“This is a new milestone in our development: benefitting from state-of-the-art infrastructure and technologies thanks to strategic partners will help us to focus on added-value activities.”

ABN Amro’s strategic plan for 2026 prioritises the optimisation of its technological infrastructure and tools.
