Banking Services
At Fiduciary Group, we believe your hard earned cash and financial assets deserve the best possible care so that they continue to work hard for you while at the same time giving you the peace of mind that your assets are secure and available as and when you wish. With this in mind, we at Fiduciary have a dedicated and professional team of staff with many years combined experience in Private, Commercial and Corporate Banking to look after those needs.
Over the years we have built and developed sound and lasting relationships with some of the world’s largest and most prestigious banks, not just in Gibraltar and the UK, but throughout Europe and beyond. We are able to help provide you with tailor made solutions for all your banking needs, whatever corporate structure you have in mind. From the first discussions and suggestions of a suitable bank, through to providing updates on the performance of your portfolio, we will help you every step of the way to ensure your needs are met and your expectations exceeded.
We will assist you in the application of the account and obtain the relevant forms necessary to open the account; we will even complete those forms for you and submit them to the bank along with all applicable corporate documentation which can be certified and notarised here at Fiduciary as necessary. In most cases this can be done without you having to make the journey to Gibraltar. We will monitor the progress of the application, keeping you informed at every stage, and liaise with the bank concerned should further information be required by them.
We provide authorised signatories from amongst our senior managers and directors who will act on behalf of the company in any transactions or dealings with the bank. This avoids the need for time consuming direct communication with the bank yourself as well as alleviating those difficulties which could arise due to language or time zone. On receipt of your signed instructions, we will arrange the necessary, leaving you the peace of mind that your wishes will be actioned in a speedy and professional manner.
Our Banking Department can act on your behalf in transmitting funds worldwide, instructing the bank in the format required; whether it be to settle a small invoice or to buy a property in the country of your choice. Many banks offer discretionary and non-discretionary managed portfolio facilities as well as other more structured investment models. If these products are of interest to you we will obtain all the necessary information for you to make an informed choice, putting you in direct contact with the appropriate person as necessary. We can suggest a bank that is right for you.
Many of our clients have trading companies and require the full range of banking facilities necessary to run a successful business, from cheque books and debit or credit cards, to on-line banking access and beyond. We will undertake to ensure that your chosen bank is able to provide all the facilities you require and that these are available to you as soon as possible.
Since all banks are registered financial institutions in their respective jurisdictions they are bound by current anti-money laundering legislation. They take very seriously the need to know their clients, understand the nature of their business and have strict rules regarding authenticating the source of funds into an account as well as any ongoing transmission of those funds. Our experience has equipped us well to understand these requirements and we work closely with the banks to ensure we are fully conversant with the present situation as well as any new changes in legislation which are enacted. For our clients, this means that we can assist you in providing your bank with such information or documentation as may from time to time be required; be it for a particular transaction, a new line of business to be entered into or a new investment strategy.
The Banking Department at Fiduciary Group is dedicated to providing the highest level of expertise and care when it comes to arranging banking facilities for our clients.
