Global Custody: When more is not enough
Custody, as with most other services provided by banks these days, is constantly re-inventing itself to keep up with the fast-changing marketplace.
In times past, the custodian provided a rather straightforward, if not simple, service - that of safekeeping and settlement. Today, custody can come with all the bells and whistles. Major global custodians cover every possible spectrum of investing. From compliance management to derivatives clearing, they have to walk two steps ahead of highly aware, increasingly cautious institutional investors and fund managers. And as markets become more global, services are increasingly specialized. More complex regulatory requirements require the input of local sub-custodians, offering opportunities for the man on the ground who understands the rules of the game on his home patch.
