EquiLend

Credit Suisse is a leading global investment bank serving institutional, corporate, government and high net worth clients. Credit Suisse's businesses include securities underwriting, sales and trading, investment banking, private equity, alternative assets, financial advisory services, investment research, and asset management.

Using EquiLend's standards-based securities finance platform and services was an obvious choice for Credit Suisse. With one of the largest global securities finance businesses, the majority of firms on the EquiLend platform have existing relationships with Credit Suisse. That provided Credit Suisse the opportunity to centralize their global business onto one platform.

Initially, Credit Suisse's agent lending business based in Zurich has embraced EquiLend's AutoBorrow and Contract Comparison functions for US & non-US equities and US fixed income securities. Credit Suisse's broker-dealer entity is using AutoBorrow for US equity and fixed income business.

As Credit Suisse continues to leverage EquiLend's services across regions and markets, they will have an automated solution that provides efficiency and scalability.

Credit Suisse uses:

» US Equity AutoBorrow
» Non-US Equity AutoBorrow
» US Fixed Income AutoBorrow
» US Contract Comparison
» Non-US Contract Comparison
