Citi has launched a communication and notification service to enable structured finance issuers to communicate key actions directly to investors in real-time via the Bloomberg Professional service.
In its capacity as notification agent for issuers, Citi will deliver automated amendments, waivers and consents to investors via CF, the corporate filing platform available to subscribers to software platform Bloomberg Professional service.
Investors will then be able to access a link to Citi’s secure investor reporting website to view notices online in real-time.
“Investors are increasingly challenged to efficiently monitor notices on numerous tranches of structured finance issues which can directly impact pricing and liquidity. Until now, investors have relied on indirect notification of actions via third parties. With Citi’s Investor Direct Notification Service, investors can be alerted to notices, ensuring they do not miss important notifications that could impact deal monitoring,” said a release.
“We are pleased to work with Bloomberg to launch Citi’s latest extension of our trust and administration services for structured finance issuers and investors,” said Paul Burke, North America head of sales, agency and trust Services at Citi. “We have a deep understanding of the needs of the participants in the structured finance markets, and we are committed to delivering leading solutions that help increase transparency and liquidity.”
