An active start to 2024
Throughout the industry events that we have attended this year, our consistent message to clients and contacts has been FundBank’s point of difference; we service only the asset management industry and, unlike retail banks that are leveraged by design, FundBank holds all client funds in trust. It does not engage in any lending, investment, or leverage activities to ensure client funds are always secure and available, even during market volatility. In addition, we invest heavily in advanced technology and FundBank’s fully digitized onboarding experience allows clients to open and manage their accounts seamlessly and efficiently in as little as 48 hours.

Industry comment – building a stronger, more resilient banking sector
Following his speech at Columbia University Law School, Michael Hsu, Acting Comptroller of the Currency indicated that he wants to implement a “targeted liquidity requirement” to cover stressed deposit outflows over a 5-day period, adding that banks should be required to show that they are able to cover “acute, ultra-short term” deposit outflows to help prevent future bank runs such as those seen during last year’s regional banking crisis. FundBank’s John D. Rosanelli recently responded to these comments in an article.
