22 March 2010
FAIRBAIRN PRIVATE BANK SHORTLISTED FOR UK WEALTH
MANAGEMENT AWARD
The readers of the Financial Times and Investors Chronicle have
shortlisted Fairbairn Private Bank for Best Private Bank in their
Wealth Management Awards 2010. The winners of these national awards
will be announced at a black-tie ceremony on April 29 at The Park
Lane Hotel in London.
The readers of the Financial Times and Investors Chronicle were
invited to complete a detailed questionnaire about their wealth
managers and this resulted in the awards shortlist. Assessments
were based on a range of criteria, including financial performance,
fees, the range of investment options and tax solutions,
trustworthiness and general competence. The scores for each
of these criteria are then used by a panel of judges to select a
winner in each category. The title of Best Private Bank will be
awarded to the bank that the readers and judges feel offers its
banking customers truly outstanding, tailored banking
services.
Greg Horton, managing director of Fairbairn Private Bank,
commented: “We are delighted to be one of only four banks to be
shortlisted for the Best Private Bank award. To be recognised
for this national award from two such highly-respected journals is
particularly encouraging following so soon on the launch of our
London office and our recent shortlisting for asset management
performance in the Private Asset Managers “PAM” awards earlier this
year. We are a highly motivated team with a strong commitment to
our clients and this independent acknowledgement from them is a
strong endorsement that we are making good progress towards
fulfilling our principal aim, which is to serve our clients better
than any other financial services organisation.”
