# Sectors — Custodians

With teams of client service managers in their hundreds, managing clients in their tens of thousands, the weight of communications traffic for a custodian bank is incredible.  More incredible still is that this traffic comes in a form that is difficult to track, manage and audit: email. 

Taskize replaces email and consolidates, streamlines and automates the immense amount of custodian comms around query resolution and exception management.

## TASKIZE SOLVES FOR CUSTODIANS IN THREE KEY WAYS

#### Flexibility

The Taskize platform has been developed to recognise the fact that a custodian’s clients will always be spread across different geographies, different operating models and across different service levels.  With our Smart Directory and workflow functionality, the ability to handle such variety becomes an operational advantage, as opposed to a financial drain.

#### Singularity

All comms, all queries, all in one place.  With Taskize, operations teams can spot and flag areas of risk, by identifying which clients or query types need priority or early intervention, understanding resource constraints or bottlenecks – be it in settlements, tax or other internal teams – and providing instant updates and, as a result, increased satisfaction.

#### Interoperability

Custodian banks deploying Taskize not only gain the specific benefits of our platform – evidenced by decreased solution times and increased client satisfaction – but they also remain able to get the best out of their existing systems and resources. That's thanks to Taskize's highly interoperable nature and our ever-evolving series of connectors and integrations. 

#### "We’ve partnered with Taskize to deliver streamlined, interoperable enquiry management solutions that meet the evolving needs of our clients."
