BNP Paribas Securities Services will maintain Aladdin’s investment book of record as “the trusted source of data”.

The securities services unit has been a client of French investment software provider eFront, which was snapped up by BlackRock last year.

It leverages eFront Invest to offer asset servicing solutions to alternative asset managers.

BNP Paribas Securities Services head of Asset Owners and Managers Client Lines Arnaud Claudon said: “This innovative operating model, which is already live and co-designed with our mutual client, BNP Paribas Asset Management, will combine all the advantages of a leading front office platform with those of our middle and back office capabilities and multi-local expertise.”

The latest partnership comes shortly after BlackRock’s partnership with Microsoft.

The tie-up enables the hosting of Aladdin on the Microsoft Azure cloud platform.
