BANK PROFILE · Jersey

Barclays International Banking

Barclays Bank PLC, Jersey Branch

Barclays International Banking is run from Barclays Bank PLC, Jersey Branch at 13 Library Place, St Helier, and is regulated by the Jersey Financial Services Commission. A branch is not a separate company, so the bank here is Barclays Bank PLC, and the long-term ratings recorded below are that legal entity's own rather than the holding company's. Deposits fall under the Jersey Bank Depositors Compensation Scheme up to GBP 50,000. The proposition covers an International Bank Account in sterling, euro and US dollars, currency accounts, the International Reserve Account, 35-day and 100-day notice deposits, a Barclays Connect Visa debit card and discretionary portfolio management run from Jersey. Access rests on GBP 100,000 of cash or investments held with the bank; below that the published International Banking Service fee is GBP 40 a month, and relationship management starts at GBP 250,000. The published tariff is that of Barclays Bank PLC and expressly excludes Private Banking; the separate Barclays Bank UK PLC tariff is not used here.
