Skipton International, the Guernsey-based bank with a Mortgage Centre in St Helier, has emerged triumphant for the third successive year in a glittering ceremony at London’s Lancaster Gate.
The bank has won the ‘Offshore Account Provider of the Year’ trophy in the prestigious Moneyfacts Consumer Awards, marking it out as a leader in offshore banking.
Totally independent, the Moneyfacts Consumer Awards combines over 30 years of Moneyfacts’ expertise with the opinions of the all-important customer. Giving over a hundred thousand customers a voice, the results enable Moneyfacts to distinguish companies that offer great products alongside excellent customer service.
The bank was up against stiff competition, beating Standard Chartered and Barclays UK on the podium.
Skipton’s Business Development Manager, Kurt van Addison Snr attended the ceremony and commented: “The Moneyfacts Consumer Awards are the pinnacle of banking awards. We have won thanks to the support and nominations from our customers. Winning this award is a recognition of the consistently high levels of service, and long-term stable rates we offer our savings customers.
“Offshore accounts are an integral part of our business; we look after the savings of Channel Islanders, people from the Isle of Man, along with British expats from more than 100 countries around the world.
“Winning this award for the third year in a row is truly special and testament to the personal service of our colleagues.”
