Citigroup launches Hedge Fund Middle Office services - Quick Facts

Citigroup Inc. (C) announced the launch of Hedge Fund Middle Office services, a daily operational suite of solutions for hedge fund managers.

Citi's Hedge Fund Middle Office services include a comprehensive suite of post-trade and pre-settlement services, which are scalable and modular. The services are global and include technology solutions that help manage daily trade processing and P&L reporting, OTC confirmation and valuation, collateral management, corporate action processing and cash management.

In addition, Citi's solution allows hedge funds to move to a more variable operational cost model - an especially attractive feature in the current cost-constrained environment. Hedge Fund Middle Office services are available to funds operating in North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia-Pacific.

"The Hedge Fund Middle Office service has been designed to improve operational efficiency and transparency for hedge fund managers by providing independent third party operations. It can be used either on a stand-alone basis, or in conjunction with Citi's suite of Hedge Fund Administration services." said Chandresh Iyer, Head of Global Custody and Investment Administration Services at Citi.
