About Global Custodian magazine and the Agent Banks in Major Markets survey
Global Custodian's Agent Banks in Major Markets survey is now in its 30th year. For the second year in a row, Global Custodian joined forces with AON McLagan investment Services (McLagan) for data collection and analysis. The survey was conducted from May through August 2019, comprising 95 questions across 12 service areas: Client Service, Account Management, Asset Safety, Risk Management, Liquidity Management, Regulation and Compliance, Innovation, Asset Servicing, Pricing, Technology, Cash Management and FX, and Future Relationship.
Founded in 1989, the original focus of Global Custodian magazine was on securities processing operations: articles that explore how shares trade and settle and are held. Its editorial scope has since expanded to include fund administration, securities lending and financing, prime brokerage and the infrastructure of the global securities industry (CSDs, ICSDs, payments systems and other industry bodies and initiatives). The editorial content of the magazine is now also supported by industry-standard surveys that address how the performance of custodian banks, fund administrators, prime brokers and tri-party securities financing providers compare with each other and within individual markets.
