Cornèr Bank (Overseas) has this week unveiled an expanded suite of investment services targeted at Bahamas-based clients, including its “My Cornèr” trading app.
The move comes six months after the financial institution launched a global trading platform for local residents as it sought to exploit recent exchange control liberalisation.
Vittorio Cornaro, group chairman, announced an expansion that includes fund and individual asset management, advisory services and the 24/7 trading app for Cornèrtrader account holders during the opening of its new art exhibition at its Old Fort Town Centre office.
“More than 20 years ago we came to The Bahamas,” said Mr Cornaro. “Now we have two locations - our office on East Bay Street and here in Old Fort Bay. Five years ago, we introduced our trading platform, Cornèrtrader, and we knew we were taking a chance, being innovative and courageous. The response to Cornèrtrader went above and beyond all our expectations.”
“I am especially proud that Cornèr Bank was the first international financial institution to provide a trading platform for Bahamians and others living in The Bahamas. Bahamians and others who use our Cornèrtrader platform can now trade on the New York and London stock exchanges in real time independently anywhere, any time.”
Encouraged by the response to that Cornèrtrader product, Cornèr Bank said it moved “expeditiously” to fill the demand for increased investment services.
“At any given time we have more than 6,000 pieces of current information available, and while we know that we are comprehensive, we also understand that the sheer volume of information available can be daunting,” said Christine Russell, Cornèr Bank’s chief exexutive. “Advisory services simplify the process.”
Such services are available for individual account holders and institutional investors.
