• Why COOs must demonstrate efficient operation
• Why COOs must have increasing strategic insight and contribute to the overall business goals
• The importance of strong vendor relationships
• How an IBOR can help you keep pace with business needs

"Our, and other pension plans', future depends on our ability to respond to business needs in an agile and innovative manner," said Rosemarie McClean, COO at Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan. "The rapid pace of change in areas like regulatory compliance and collateral management makes it essential for us to have the right technical platform in place to deliver timely and accurate information across all asset classes to our investment professionals at any time of the day. An IBOR is one way of organizing your data to be able to address the kinds of business challenges we are facing today.

"To have confidence that we will be able to keep pace with our business needs through application of technical capabilities like an IBOR, strong relationships with industry-leading vendors like the one we have with SimCorp are essential."
