Global Finance Names the World’s Best Subcustodian Banks 2013

150x170 SubCustody13

NEW YORK, May 15, 2013 Global Finance magazine has released its eleventh annual ranking of the “Best Subcustodians.” This exclusive survey will be published in the July/August issue. Global Finance editors and reporters, with input from expert sources, selected the winners from the institutions that reliably provide the best services in local markets and regions to global custodians. Our criteria included customer relations, quality of service, competitive pricing, smooth handling of exception items, technology platforms, post-settlement operations, business continuity plans and knowledge of local regulations and practices.

“The subcustody market is in a state of flux, with new regulations to deal with and a changing landscape of market players," said Joseph Giarraputo, publisher and editorial director of Global Finance .


“Subcustodians are key to the safekeeping of client assets. With these awards we evaluate those banks that do the best job of asset servicing and protection in highly complex global markets.”

An Awards Ceremony will take place during the SIBOS conference in Dubai in September.
