Custody – Team Approach

Regions combines a centralized approach for the maximum utilization

of technology and a decentralized approach to assigning individual
relationship discretion for the highest possible services delivery.

We believe, however, that it is our people who are the key to the
outstanding service we provide. While any of our competitors can
purchase equivalent trust accounting systems, it is the effective use of
our system and our customer-first approach that distinguishes us from
our competition. The Custody Team has dedicated much time and
resources to developing systems expertise in order to meet the needs
of almost 200 outside investment managers and directed brokers in
order to provide an excellent level of customer service.

Regions strives to maintain good working relationships with the outside

investment managers we serve. Large custody accounts are
monitored daily by the Trust Security Manager. Operational issues that
arise are handled by the Custody Team in close coordination with the
Trust Officer assigned to the account.
