Press Release

BNP Paribas Securities Services' NeoLink client portal is now available on iPad. Launched in 2008, NeoLink gives clients instant access to all of their on-line applications.

NeoLink is fully adapted to the parameters of a modern touch-screen. The latest version of the site (securities-services.bnpparibas.com) was launched in July 2010 and is also compatible with iPad. The level of security and data protection is identical to that obtained when accessing the site from a PC.

BNP Paribas Securities Services also uses this new technology in its business approach, providing its sales teams with iPads for all documentation. This ensures automatic updates and reduced paper consumption, in line with the BNP Paribas corporate social and environmental responsibility policy.

Mark Hillman, head of marketing and communications at BNP Paribas Securities Services commented: "This gives us a new innovative and interactive way of communicating with our clients. The move reflects our commitment to using new technology to provide our clients with optimal service levels."
