Unlike commercial banks that are subject to credit, duration, interest rate volatility risk and are leveraged by design, FundBank, N.A. operates as an institutional trust bank and holds all client funds in trust. FundBank does not engage in lending or other leveraged activity. The Bank operates to facilitate security and availability of client funds, even during market volatility.
Colm O’Driscoll, Vice Chairman of FundBank, N.A. and FundBank Ltd., commented,”As the asset management industry rapidly evolves from the recent banking failures, so must its banking solutions. We identified a demand from asset managers for a robust and fully dedicated banking partner, delivering banking solutions focused on the unique needs of asset management clients. Expanding into the U.S. market has been a continued request from our clients, and we are pleased to have made this a reality for them. As part of our commitment to our clients and the industry, we look forward to further announcements in relation to our products, services, and geographic reach. This will include our expansion into Europe, with an application to the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financie (CSSF) in Luxembourg and the European Central Bank (ECB) for banking authorization.”
John Rosanelli, CEO of FundBank N.A., commented, “We understand that the cash flows of our clients can be large, volatile, and transient. Operating as a trust bank, our clients are not exposed to the credit, liquidity and duration risks that caused the recent regional bank failures. FundBank offers our clients safety, security and stability for their investors and their managed funds.”
