Financing Solutions contains three key business lines – Agency Lending, Secured Financing and Prime Services. Our fast-growing Prime Services group is searching for a static ata Specialist, who would be responsible for driving the day-to-day support of the Equity Swaps product.

Prime Services is an alternative to prime brokerage and is the only platform that allows clients to borrow stock and finance from a segregated custody account. State Street’s Prime Services solution can reduce counterparty risk, offer additional transparency and provide more control over assets.

This approach provides a more efficient and cost-effective way to manage long/short portfolios.

To meet client demand for synthetic market access globally, Prime Services are expanding their product offering to include Equity Swaps: a market standard Portfolio swap and a flexible Total Return Swap to suit client requirements.
