PRESS RELEASE: Global Finance Names The World’s Best Sub-Custodian Banks 2025

Global Finance announces its selections for the 23rd annual Best Sub-Custodian Bank Awards in seven regions and 82 countries, territories, and districts. A full report on the selections will appear in the July/August print and digital editions of Global Finance as well as online at GFMag.com.

“The sub-custodian banking sector is becoming more strategic and tech-driven, with rising regulatory demands and growing importance in global financial operations, making today’s sub‑custodians indispensable advisers in a complex, interconnected global finance landscape,” said Global Finance founder and editorial director Joseph Giarraputo. “Global Finance’s Best Sub-Custodian Bank Awards recognize the leading institutions that are setting new standards for excellence in sub-custody services.” 

Global Finance’s editorial board considered market research, input from expert sources and entries from banks to select the institutions that reliably provide the best services in local markets and regions. The 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. Global Finance also obtained input from users of sub-custody services. Performance was judged over the period covering January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024.
