Clearstream’s Global Liquidity Hub Global Liquidity Hub Corporate – Case study ‒ Corporates still have record cash holdings in order to remain flexible towards business development opportunities. The crisis and the low interest rate environment, regulatory requirements and the negative interest rates pose immense challenges for treasurers. ‒ On the other hand the low interest rate environment gives corporates access to cheap funding via capital markets, raising questions regarding the need for efficient cash management. ‒ The placement of unsecured investments is increasingly difficult due to reduced bank limits and counterparty risk.

Do you think corporate treasurers will use more tri-party repo’s?
