By Editorial
Global Custodian, the leading publication covering financial administration, prime brokerage and custody businesses, today announced the winners of its 2014 OTC Derivatives Prime Brokerage Survey. OTC derivatives are undergoing a period of sustained change in terms of operational and clearing processes and this Survey, the fifth annual, provides a snapshot of how well clients think their providers are responding. The Survey results are based on hundreds of responses from around the world covering the performance of more than a dozen prime brokers who offer this kind of speciality service.

The Survey identifies excellence as perceived by prime broker clients, primarily hedge funds, banks and asset managers, in twelve core service categories. In each case two providers were identified for inclusion in the Roll of Honor. These awards reflect the breadth and depth of clients responding for particular providers as well as scores and comments received from those clients.

The main winners in the 2014 Survey were Citi, whose services ranked in the Roll of Honor in six of the 12 available categories, including Client Service and Margining. They also received the highest number of responses. Morgan Stanley and Barclays also performed well in the Survey, being included in five and four Roll of Honor categories respectively. Other firms gaining Roll of Honor mentions included Goldman Sachs, Credit Suisse, J.P. Morgan, Bank of America Merrill Lynch and Deutsche Bank. The full results including details of all Roll of Honor mentions and relevant facts concerning participants in the Survey are available here.
