The world is getting smaller and smaller. These days you can wake up to freshly brewed Brazilian coffee. Have lunch in an authentic French restaurant before driving home in your luxury American car, listening to your favorite British band. Why should your money not enjoy the same freedom?
Stanbic Bank’s International Private Banking offers access to international banking services, foreign exchange, savings, structured products and a range of other services and products. It is ideal for people who want to diversify their wealth, have income from overseas or work abroad.
According to Nana Owiredu-Gyamera, Head of International Private Banking, with a small initial deposit one can open the Standard Bank International Banking Account.
“There are no costs involved to open an account and you get extra benefits if you are a Stanbic client,” he said. “Opening this bank account could help you accumulate funds in alternative currencies and serve as a base to diversify your wealth.”
Gavin McIntosh, Head of Distribution, Standard Bank International Banking, said, the offering is ideal for people who are looking to diversify their investments, people who have children abroad, people who need to make payments abroad or those who have other international transactional needs.
“Just because your money is not on the same continent as you are, doesn’t mean that you don’t have full control over it,” he said.
Debunking the myth that International Banking clients do not have access and control over their funds, Owiredu-Gyamera guaranteed that Stanbic’s International Private Banking is available to give clients personalised service. Clients also have 24/7 digital banking access via the internet and Stanbic’s smart phone app.
At a Private Banking client engagement session held by Stanbic Bank in collaboration with Kempinski Gold Coast Hotel and Chivas, Nana Dwemoh Benneh, Head, Personal and Business Banking at Stanbic Bank, said with more than 20 years’ international experience, the Bank is poised to provide the best possible solutions for every client.
“We are committed to making sure that we offer you the best of service and leverage from all aspects of our Group to bring you cutting edge products and services that will fit your every need,” Nana Benneh said.
The session was aimed at finding out more about the clients’ needs and getting them acquainted with the International Banking Offering as well as the products of Kempinski, Chivas and Glam Magazine.
