Enhancement adds local paying agency capabilities for European debt capital markets

U.S. Bank today announced it will now support debt capital market transactions for clients who issue securities in the French central securities depository (CSD) operated by Euroclear France.

U.S. Bank Global Corporate Trust has offered issuing and paying agency services for commercial paper and medium-term notes, standalone corporate bonds and structured finance in international markets for more than 12 years. With this new capability, U.S. Bank can now offer these services in Euroclear France CSD. In addition, by establishing the infrastructure that supports the TARGET2-Securities (T2S) platform, U.S. Bank will be able to add more European CSD markets in the future.

“We now have the ability to serve as a single trusted provider for international CSD and European domestic issuances and offer minimised transaction risk and increased operational efficiencies for our clients in the French domestic CSD,” said Tom Cubitt, head of U.S. Bank Global Corporate Trust Europe. “U.S. Bank is committed to continually enhancing our local paying agency capabilities to provide our European clients with exceptional, comprehensive services.”

U.S. Bank offers investment services solutions from three European locations in Ireland, Luxembourg and the United Kingdom. For more information, visit usbank.com/investmentservices.
