The opportunity

More content, without compromising quality.

SimCorp provides investment management software and services to financial institutions worldwide. Its marketing team faced rising demand for high-quality content across channels and regions.

The team wanted to meet that demand without lowering its standards, and to establish an approach that could extend beyond content to the wider commercial organisation.

What the team did

Three stages, on the team’s own work.

Participants completed an assessment of their workflows and their use of AI before the first workshop, so that every stage was built around their own tasks.

PLAN

Choose the tasks

Participants reviewed their workflows and priorities, and chose the content tasks where AI would make the greatest difference.

BUILD

Build the assistants

They built specialised AI assistants for those tasks, with the inputs, instructions and examples each one required.

SCALE

Share and extend

The team shared what worked, assembled a library of its assistants and identified the next tasks to address.

In their own words

From the SimCorp team.

“For me, the AI consultant is my best friend now. I can see it will be a big part of our future, and the future is now.”

Heajun PhanHeajun Phan, Head of Global Content Strategy

“One of the challenges with integrating AI is figuring out where to begin. The workshops were helpful in identifying a jumping off point and laying down the foundation for how to start.”

Ayumi Shibata-Banicevic, Global Investment Analytics Solutions Marketing Lead

“You have to slow down in the beginning to move fast. The payoff is so good that when you invest time upfront, you know you're going to get strong support.”
