Bank of the Bahamas’ Cat Island branch has celebrated its sixth anniversary with a business reception, community sponsorships and appreciation day for customers. Head office representatives also travelled to Cat Island to attend the reception that was held at the branch in New Bight on June 4.

Nicole Holder, Bank of the Bahamas’s manager of sales and services, told customers that with increasingly complex regulatory changes occurring globally, the bank had decided to shift its focus from international expansion to local growth.

“Today, as we celebrate the sixth anniversary of the establishment of Cat Island branch, we are committed to becoming ‘the best and most respected financial enterprise in the Bahamas’. Service excellence, staff development and relationship building with personalised solutions for customers, and innovative products and services, will be the building blocks for our success,” Mrs Holder said.

Letitia Brown, officer-in-charge of Cat Island, said: “As the bank continues to improve and find innovative solutions to meet your financial needs, together we expect to bring about positive change in our community and experience growth and development in Cat Island,.”

Bank of the Bahamas presented a cheque in the amount of $1,750 to sponsor the Battle of The Bands at the Rake and Scrape Festival. It also promised support of $2,000 to provide text books for disadvantaged children at Cat Island’s Old Bight Library.
