PRESS RELEASE: Global Finance Names The World’s Best Sub-Custodian Banks 2026

Global Finance announces its selections for the 24th annual Best Sub-Custodian Bank Awards across seven regions and 83 countries, territories, and districts. A full report on the selections will appear in the July/August print and digital editions of Global Finance, and online at GFMag.com.

“The demands placed on sub-custodian banks have never been greater, as investors seek broader global exposure and regulators intensify scrutiny of post-trade operations,” said Global Finance founder and editorial director Joseph Giarraputo. “Global Finance’s Best Sub-Custodian Bank Award honorees have distinguished themselves through operational excellence, market knowledge, technological innovation, and their ability to deliver reliable asset servicing across multiple jurisdictions.”

Global Finance’s editorial board considered market research, input from expert sources, and entries from banks to select institutions that consistently deliver 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 gathered input from users of sub-custody services. Performance was evaluated from January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2025.

The list of winners of Global Finance’s Best Sub-Custodian Bank 2026 Awards follows.
