Jiko Brings Direct T-Bill Access to State Street's LINK Ecosystem

Jiko today announced that it will join LINK, State Street’s unified desktop ecosystem within GlobalLINK, its suite of award-winning electronic trading platforms, technology, and workflow solutions for institutional clients. The integration expands the range of third-party solutions and asset classes available through LINK, providing institutional clients with access to Jiko’s U.S. Treasury bill capabilities.

The integration allows eligible institutional investors, corporate treasurers, CFOs, and asset managers the ability, through LINK, to utilize Jiko’s U.S. Treasury bill offering through an efficient digital workflow. Jiko and Jiko Securities, Inc., its FINRA-member broker-dealer, will provide the underlying offering and related services.

“Treasurers want to know exactly what they own and where their cash sits," said Stephane Lintner, CEO of Jiko. "Through LINK, eligible institutions can hold U.S. Treasury bills directly in their own name, with rolling and reinvestment handled automatically, inside the workflow where they already make liquidity decisions.”

“Our clients are looking for more choice and greater efficiency in how they manage short-term liquidity,” said Greg Fortuna, head of State Street Markets, GlobalLINK. “By making Jiko’s direct T-bill capabilities accessible through LINK, we are broadening the range of third-party solutions available to eligible clients and providing a streamlined way to access direct U.S. Treasury bill ownership as part of their broader liquidity management process.”

Jiko’s integration further extends the LINK ecosystem within GlobalLINK, bringing together State Street capabilities and complementary third-party solutions to provide institutional clients with greater choice and a more connected experience across their workflows.
