Barclays Wealth
Barclays Wealth focuses on private and intermediary clients worldwide, providing international and private banking, investment management, fiduciary services, and brokerage.
What we do
Barclays Wealth is an organisation dedicated to helping clients get the most from their finances by acting as their wealth guide. With access to the entire resources of Barclays Group and its products, as well as the ability to source independently from across the market, the company is able to provide services and expertise to make a difference, whether clients want a close personal relationship or simply direct access to trading.
High value clients need quality financial services, including investment, banking and credit products, and wealth structuring. Many companies offer some of these services but few can deliver them all.
Barclays Wealth has grown quickly since it was established in October 2006, and now manages client assets worth £134bn worldwide (as at 30 June 2009) with offices in more than 25 countries.
Barclays Wealth was voted Global Investor's Wealth Manager of the Year for 2009.
Barclays Wealth comprises six core areas:
- UK Private Banking – bespoke banking and investment solutions for high net worth clients
- International Private Banking – operating in onshore and offshore markets
- Wealth Intermediaries – advice, products and services for corporate clients
- Wealth Advisory – a full range of fiduciary, estates and trust services
- Barclays Stockbrokers – execution-only brokering and investment
