RBTT opens new Financial Centre

RBTT Bank Ltd recently opened its deluxe Financial Centre at Albion Plaza in Port-of-Spain. The Centre, which is equipped with the region’s largest trading room, will offer a ranged of integrated financial services including Trust and Estate Management Services, Asset Management and Securities Trading. The technology savvy and impressive upscale centre is connected to the world’s major financial centres of London, New York, Zurich and Tokyo.

Speaking at the formal opening of the Centre, Peter July, Group chairman of RBTT Financial Holdings Ltd, said, “we consider this a major initiative, not only for the RBTT Group, but also for TT and the Caribbean.” “It introduces and ushers in a new approach to the delivery of financial services,” he continued. “RBTT is now in a position against a landscape clutter with financial products, to assist globally-minded customers in a very special and unique way.”

In delivering a special address, Governor of the Central Bank, Ewart Williams, congratulated RBTT for its contribution towards making the financial sector in TT a sound, efficient and innovative one and the true leader in the Caribbean region. He said, “this building and your new comprehensive all-in-one globally-oriented service are clear testimony to RBTT’s quest for innovation and yet another indication of the increasing maturity and sophistication of our financial system. This is further justification for our boast that TT is indeed the regional financial centre of the Caribbean.” The establishment of the Financial Centre comes on the heels of the acquisition by RBTT of the Ernst and Young Trust Corporation in Barbados in July of this year. That acquisition marked the entry of the Group into the Barbados market.
