NEW YORK (April 21, 2015) \u2013 U.S. Bank (NYSE: USB) is the first corporate trustee to adopt Bloomberg\u2019s new standardized, open-source reporting on syndicated loans that sit in collateralized loan obligations (CLOs). By adopting this standard, CLO asset managers now have the ability to easily identify loans and create comprehensive reports to help investors better understand the performance of their investments.<\/p>\n

Called the Financial Instrument Global Identifier (FIGI), Bloomberg created the standard as part of its Bloomberg Open Symbology initiative. Last year, nonprofit technology standards consortium Object Management Group voted unanimously to adopt FIGI as the standard methodology for identifying financial instruments, such as syndicated loans in CLOs.<\/p>\n

\u201cU.S. Bank is not only the first corporate trustee to adopt our reporting standard, but the largest player in the space by market share,\u201d said Mark Betteridge, Global Product Manager, Syndicated Loans and League Tables, Bloomberg. \u201cWe expect the move toward open-source to become an industry and worldwide trend as firms look to eliminate the problems associated with integrating multiple identification systems.\u201d<\/p>\n

U.S. Bank is the largest trustee of CLOs globally. According to annual league tables published by Asset-Backed Alert, the bank was trustee on 45 percent of CLO issuances in 2014, up from 32 percent in 2013, 26 percent in 2012 and just 8 percent in 2011.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve been able to gain market share by investing in people and technology that improves our clients\u2019 experience,\u201d said David Keys, senior vice president for U.S. Bank Global Corporate Trust Services. \u201cAlong those lines, we were interested in Bloomberg\u2019s FIGI methodology because it creates a simplified and more transparent process than what our industry has previously been able to offer.”<\/p>\n

Bloomberg\u2019s methodology will be incorporated into hard-copy reports as well as U.S. Bank\u2019s new online client portal, Pivot. The bank invested heavily in user experience design to build the Pivot platform, and rolled it out late last year. Already cited as a market leading portal in industry publications, Pivot becomes more powerful for clients in its current and future state as a result of the bank adopting FIGI.<\/p>\n

Bloomberg will continuously build, update, and administer FIGI identifiers to ensure their accuracy and effectiveness, but also encourages third parties to integrate the standard into their databases.<\/p>\n
