Northern Trust Named Best Global Investor Services House

Award presented for second consecutive year at Euromoney Magazine Awards for Excellence

LONDON--()--Northern Trust (Nasdaq:NTRS) has been named Best Global Investor Services House by Euromoney Magazine for the second year in a row. The award was presented at the annual Euromoney Awards for Excellence held in London in July.

The Euromoney Awards for Excellence acknowledge the exceptional financial institutions based on their aptitude in leadership, innovation, and ambition in the markets in which they thrive.

“We are delighted to be recognised by Euromoney Magazine for the second year running,” said Penelope Biggs, head of Northern Trust’s Institutional Investor Group. “Northern Trust has seen dynamic business growth over the past year across a wide range of market segments and we continue to focus our efforts on developing innovative ways to help serve our asset owner and asset manager clients better – whether that is supporting them in overseeing their regulatory requirements, managing risk, enhancing performance or measuring compliance, as facilitated by our Passport® information delivery system.”

“Custody banks are in the vanguard of the global battle for transparency as a way of combating investment risk,” said Euromoney. “The regulatory challenges that are coursing through the industry are placing unprecedented pressures on investor services clients. For banks operating in this area, having a clear focus on delivering service to clients to help them make the transition to the new environment is a crucial determinant of success.

“Measuring client satisfaction is an inexact science, but Northern Trust has an approach to client service that puts it above its competitors. It structures its business around its clients’ needs rather than what products in can sell them,” added Euromoney.

Euromoney is published monthly by Euromoney Institutional Investor PLC. It is read by over 140,000 financial industry professionals.
