Clifford Chance advises AIA on transformative investment platform collaboration

Global law firm Clifford Chance has advised AIA, the leading Pan-Asian life and health insurance group, on a collaboration to transform its investment platform.

As part of AIA's long-term investment programme, a strategic collaboration with BlackRock and BNY will see AIA implement BlackRock’s Aladdin technology platform alongside BNY’s specialised investment operations and data management services.

This will deliver industry-leading investment solutions and create a unified and scalable ecosystem to support AIA's growing investment activities.

Clifford Chance advised on all aspects of the collaboration particularly the contracting arrangements. This is another example of the Clifford Chance team delivering business-critical technology and business transformation projects for its global client base.

The Clifford Chance Tech Digital team was led by senior associates Jamie Andrew and Midori Takenaka, with support from associate Stephanie Ohira.
