Personal banking for your individual needs

Our exclusive, fee-free Premier Banking service for Guernsey residents has a simple objective: to help you maximise your wealth. We start by getting to know you and understanding your financial goals. Then we apply our knowledge of the Guernsey legal and financial system and use the resources and expertise of Barclays specialists around the world to help you manage your money accordingly.

If you're a Guernsey resident with more than £100,000 in assets to invest or a gross income of at least £75,000 paid into a Barclays Wealth International account, Premier Banking can offer you:

  • A fee-free service designed for our more affluent clients
  • The personal attention of a dedicated Relationship Manager
  • Premium banking products and solutions to support your financial goals
  • Privileged access to financial specialists within the Barclays group and our partner organisations
  • A range of valuable lifestyle benefits

Your Relationship Manager

At the heart of our Premier Banking service is your dedicated Relationship Manager, who will listen to you, understand your priorities and help you achieve your short- and long-term financial objectives.

You'll have their mobile number and email address so you can contact them directly. If you prefer, you can meet them face-to-face in your local branch or at your premises to discuss your options. They have the authority to make things happen, giving you privileged access to specialists across the entire Barclays Group and beyond.

Most importantly, they will be as proactive as you want. Some of our clients like their Relationship Manager to regularly update them on new opportunities and developments, while others choose to set their own pace, relying on their Relationship Manager to respond quickly to queries and requests for action.

A banking service to support you

Your Relationship Manager heads a three-level support team, which also includes:

  • Your Relationship Executive, who provides office-based back-up when your Relationship Manager is not available.
  • Our Premier Service team, which executes your day-to-day banking requests quickly and efficiently. If you want to check a balance, arrange a payment or transfer money, just give them a call.

You’ll also benefit from direct access to your accounts via:

  • Our 24 hour online banking service, which enables you to carry out transactions whenever and wherever you want*.
