Independent valuation service for OTC derivatives launched

JP Morgan Investor Services (JPMIS), part of JP Morgan Chase, has launched an independent valuation service for over-the-counter derivatives.

JPMIS said it is the first global custodian to offer a comprehensive OTC valuation service as part of a fund accounting product, adding that the move is in response to fund managers and institutional investors moving increasingly into alternative investments and derivatives.

“We administer a growing number of OTC positions because institutional investors are adopting hedge-fund orientated strategies,” said Chris Jones, head of European fund accounting product management at JPMIS. “We are in the business of providing independent and transparent investment valuations, so this is a natural evolution,” he added.
