Quilter lines up final platform migration
By Justin Cash 26
The end is in sight for Quilter’s £500m platform migration.
Final assets are set to transfer over the last weekend in February, the firm says this morning.
The platform was initially soft launched in February 2019, some six years after Quilter, then-called Skandia, took the first steps towards a replatforming project.
Around £13bn is still to be migrated onto the firm’s new platform technology, the firm says, after a major transfer of assets at the end of November took the running total to around £50bn, or 80 per cent of overall assets.
