Transcend, a provider of liquidity, funding, and collateral optimisation solutions, has secured banking partner Citi as its latest investor.

Citi becomes the third global bank to invest in the fintech firm along with other institutional investors.

The investment was made through Citi’s Strategic Investments arm and will support Transcend’s global roll out of its solutions.

The agreement will also enable Citi to enhance the efficiency of how it deploys cash and collateral across its global network.

Formed in 2013, the Transcend solution integrates activity across bi-lateral, cleared, and triparty collateral requirements and allows allocation of the best collateral.

Alain Verdickt, head of collateral optimisation at Citi, says: “The industry-wide solutions that Transcend is developing have the promise to dramatically shift the efficiency and profitability of the entire industry and we’re glad to play our part in facilitating these advances,”

Transcend founder and CEO, Bimal Kadikar, adds: “The use of collateral has moved beyond operations and is now being seen as a strategic enterprise-wide business opportunity.
