Journal of Securities Operations & Custody

Journal of Securities Operations & Custody is the major peer-reviewed professional journal showcasing the latest thinking, practice and emerging issues in securities operations, custodian banking and clearing and settlement.

Published quarterly and guided by an expert Editorial Board, each 100-page issue contains detailed, practical articles and real case studies analysing the latest thinking and practice in servicing new product/investor types, operational excellence, managing costs and reliability, risk management and measuring the impact of regulation and standardisation initiatives.

It does not publish advertising or the 'bite-sized' articles all too common on the internet, but rather in-depth actionable advice and ‘lessons learned’ from fellow industry professionals who demonstrate how leading financial institutions have successfully leveraged their operations and custody functions to improve profitability, competitive advantage, client service and risk management in key areas including:

  • servicing new product/investor types
  • improving operational efficiency and costs in the trade-processing cycle
  • operational risk management
  • standardisation initiatives
  • straight-through-processing
  • clearing and settlement
  • corporate actions
  • regulation and compliance
