Transitioning your account

Transitioning a securities account from one financial institution to another can be a significant decision for a client, and providing a smooth and efficient experience is paramount to maintaining trust and satisfaction. Our two-step approach helps ensure the best possible experience.

Transition stage

Our dedicated transition team assists with the move from your prior custodian with a minimum of administration and operational disruptions. Working with a representative from our Client Onboarding team, we will guide you through the necessary documentation and setup processes to ensure everything is in place for a smooth transition. Throughout the account transition stage, we diligently monitor all conversion activity for accuracy and completeness, enabling an uninterrupted transition of your assets

Implementation stage

During the implementation stage, a dedicated relationship manager will assist in getting acquainted with your new online account and navigating the features of our platform. They will address concerns promptly, troubleshoot any technical difficulties, and provide support to provide a smooth transition to the new platform.

Your custody needs deserve a dedicated 
and experienced team

For timely, accurate, and responsive service for your custody and collateral management needs, work with a team that has the experience and knowledge to take advantage of opportunities while avoiding regulatory risk.
