Strategy


Our strategy for DSS is to focus on the provision of excellence in comprehensive domestic custody services, acting as an agent bank to institutional clients worldwide. Our mission is clearly to deliver this strategy operating in a close partnership with our clients and complement, rather than compete with, our customers' businesses.

It is the Bank’s firm belief that state of the art systems, a high level of automation and the professionalism of staff are key differentiators to the success of our business. DSS Hungary provides top quality Client Management locally and additional client coverage across multiple time-zones for the resolution of client queries outside of regular DSS Hungary business hours. Clients will have local, regional and global relationship managers for the escalation of any issue.

The service offering was extended to include HUF Cash Clearing in 2001 and Remote Membership Clearing, for foreigners who become direct members of the Budapest Stock Exchange, in 2005.

Our clients’ satisfaction is the means by which we gauge our success and the Global Custodian Agent Bank Survey represents our clients’ testimony in this respect. DSS Hungary has been Top Rated by Domestic Clients for the last five years (2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010) and Top Rated by Cross Border Clients in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010, and Commended in 2005.
