BNP Paribas Securities Services (‘BNP Paribas') today announces the successful transfer of Exelbank's business to BNP Paribas, Spain, with all client positions now held at BNP Paribas.
BNP Paribas agreed to purchase Exelbank, the specialist custody and depository banking firm formerly owned by Banco Sabadell, in June 2007. Since then, a closely coordinated, smooth integration process has been well received by clients from both companies. This acquisition, which adds significant scale to BNP Paribas in one of Europe's key investor markets, demonstrates the Bank's commitment to servicing its clients' investment strategies across all asset classes, combining the strengths of a global platform with local presence and expertise.
BNP Paribas confirms its leadership position in the Spanish market, where it already has a broad base of domestic and international clients. With more that EUR 210 billion in assets under custody, 101 mutual funds under administration, acting as depobank for 270 different mutual funds and awarded Top Rated again by Global Custodian, BNP Paribas Securities Services is an asset servicing leader with a comprehensive range of securities services products to offer institutional investors in Spain.
