Barclays Wealth and Investment Management has won the award for Guernsey Super Affluent Net-Worth-Specific Services and is joint winner of the Guernsey Corporate Advisory For Private Banking Clients Award in this year’s Euromoney Private Banking awards.
The results were announced in the recent issue of Euromoney Magazine and the awards were presented at Plaisterer’s Hall in London on 13 February.
The awards recognise the work undertaken by Barclays in the past year for its high-net-worth clients as well as in a corporate advisory capacity and are based on Euromoney’s annual Private Banking and Wealth Management Survey which is completed by private banking professionals around the world.
In addition, Barclays has retained its place in the global list of top private banks and is now ranked in 10th place for best private banking services overall. The bank was also ranked 6th for bespoke wealth planning, 9th for range of advisory services and 10th for range of investment products.
Ken Bradley, director at Barclays Wealth & Investment Management, said: “It’s very encouraging to be once again recognised by Euromoney and to know that we have improved and built on our success at the awards last year.”
Barclays in the UK also repeated its 2013 success in the Western European Net-worth-specific services category.
The Euromoney Private Banking Awards recognise the best performers out of the world’s private banks in the past year. The survey used to delineate the winners provides a qualitative and quantitative review of the best services in private banking, by region and by areas of services. It is used as an informative guide for high net-worth individuals on the range of professional wealth management service providers that are available.
