Offshore banking

Close provides specialist offshore banking facilities from its offshore operations, Close Bank Guernsey Limited and Close Bank (Isle of Man) Limited. These cater for private individuals, trusts, charities, corporations, small to medium sized institutions and professional intermediaries from around the world. 

As these services are offered by our offshore operations, they will be subject to different regulation and compensation from similar services offered in the UK. Please see our ‘Important information’ for details of the regulation and compensation applicable.

Our seamless suite of accounts facilitate cross border banking with competitive interest rates and a full range of foreign exchange and execution only custody services.  Our accounts are multi currency, have realistic entry levels, offer tailored reporting and access to monies via our Visa Gold Debit Cards and a choice of payment services.  We also offer a range of complementary lending and fiduciary options.

We have professional teams in both Guernsey and Isle of Man that offer Client Relationship Management and operational services. We are committed to high quality personal client service and offer a traditional approach to banking, offering dedicated relationship management and one-to-one contact. All of our clients have access to experienced banking professionals with broad industry knowledge who they can access during office hours. We have deliberately chosen not to use call centres, voice mail or call waiting services; eliminating the frustrations and delays that can be experienced and ensuring a rapid, personal and trusted response. A view only internet banking service is also available to provide further support.

Clients choose Close to provide a secure offshore environment for their money, access to flexible and innovative products at realistic entry levels and a truly excellent personal service.
