Citi has further extended its liquidity management network with the addition of Notional Pooling in Amsterdam, thereby providing clients with global hubs for liquidity management across six money centers including New York, London, Amsterdam, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Tokyo.
This addition furthers Citi’s continued leadership in providing clients with true, end-of-day cash aggregation and optimization across more locations than any other provider.
By using Citi’s branch network – more extensive than that of any other bank – clients can optimize end-of-day liquidity without loss of value or the limitations of associate bank networks or multi-bank concentration.
Amit Agarwal, EMEA Head of Liquidity Management Services, Treasury and Trade Solutions, Citi, said: “Our established pooling centers have experienced significant growth in the past several years, following the global financial crisis, and a number of our clients desired expansion of our program to new markets.
The Netherlands was already a major treasury center for multinationals, given its favorable tax and regulatory regime. In recent years, many emerging market companies have also set up treasury centres there, adding to the flows. The introduction of SEPA will also have a positive impact on centralization, with likely consequent further growth in the Netherlands as a liquidity hub,” Agarwal added.
Citi’s suite of Cash Optimization capabilities include multi-entity and multi-currency notional pooling, which provide clients the ability to optimize internal liquidity without commingling cash between subsidiaries or having to perform FX transactions or alter FX exposures.
