The Lift-Out Journey:
From Transition to Transformation

A lift-out is more than a transition, it’s a transformation in how teams work, connect and grow. This video follows the employee experience across the full journey, capturing what it feels like to join SS&C, adapt to a new environment and build a future within it.

An Extension of Your Business

Organizations evaluating operational strategies generally choose between maintaining functions in-house, outsourcing operations to a service provider or transitioning existing teams through a lift-out model. Understanding the benefits of each approach can help determine the right path for your business goals, growth plans and operational requirements.

In-House Operations

Maintain full ownership of operational functions, employees and technology infrastructure. An in-house model offers direct oversight and control but requires ongoing investment in talent, technology, compliance and operational scalability.

Outsourced Fund Administration

Delegate fund administration operations to SS&C while gaining access to specialized expertise, scalable technology and established operating processes. An outsourced model enables firms to reduce operational complexity, improve efficiency and focus internal resources on core investment and growth priorities.

Lift-Out Services

Transition existing employees and operational processes to SS&C while preserving institutional knowledge and maintaining service continuity. Lift-outs provide access to expanded resources, technology and expertise while minimizing disruption to employees and clients.
