For the fourth consecutive year, Standard Bank Offshore Group has been recognised as providing the ‘Best International Banking Service’ by the annual international Fund and Product Awards organised by leading industry publication, Professional Adviser. In addition, Standard Bank also won the ‘Best International Structured Products Provider’ category for the second year in a row.
Now in their 15th year, the awards recognise the work of international product providers and finance centres who are at the cutting edge of distributing financial products and services internationally. The ‘Best International Banking Service’ is awarded to the bank that the judging panel believes offers the best range of current, deposit and savings products available for expatriates taking into account such things as the range of currencies available and the minimum balance from which an account can be provided.
For ‘Best International Structured Products Provider’ Standard Bank was judged on an international level for its account business growth, product range, support to target market, attitude to risk, product education, product enhancements and involvement at an industry level.
John Coyle, CEO of Standard Bank Isle of Man Limited said: ‘This is a fantastic achievement for the Offshore team, to have won Best International Banking Service for four years running shows that our strategy and our commitment to customer service is working. To have also won the ‘Best International Structured Products Provider’ award for the second year in a row, is testament to the innovation and service levels that we are constantly striving to improve and maintain. I’m pleased for the whole team as it’s proof that their hard work and dedication in ensuring we provide our clients with what they want and need, is paying off.’
The International Fund and Product Awards are awards that recognise the achievements of the offshore financial services industry and the financial products and services that they distribute through IFAs internationally.
