Banking and Investment Management

Brown Shipley

Brown Shipley provides bespoke banking, investment and advisory services for private, institutional and corporate clients, based on experience and knowledge accumulated over almost two centuries in the industry. With a commitment to developing enduring relationships, our approach is to address our clients' needs proactively. We offer a highly personal service through dedicated and skilful relationship teams, recognising the unique financial requirements and goals of each client.

The company has grown both organically and through mergers and acquisitions, with recent history being marked by the integration of complementary businesses that allow us to meet the demand of clients for complete financial solutions.

Today, Brown Shipley is a member of the Kredietbank Luxembourg Group, a major European private banking organisation with significant operations in Luxembourg, Spain, Germany, France, Italy, Switzerland and Monaco. This connection not only improves our access to European and offshore banking centres, it also provides our clients with international expertise and additional financial security.

Private Banking

Combining traditional values with modern banking benefits, Brown Shipley offers the special advantages of private banking to discerning clients seeking a personal service. A range of products are offered, including personal and corporate current accounts, deposit accounts, money market accounts, individually structured banking in all major currencies, VISA debit card, domestic and international money transfers, travel services, offshore banking and trust and trust company administration. Our international services include foreign exchange facilities, equity and bond investing and a highly competitive foreign currency banknote and travellers cheque service.

Investment Management

Brown Shipley provides a high quality, discreet and personal investment service for individuals and private trustees, our primary objective being to preserve and enhance the wealth of clients over the long term. We manage bespoke portfolios of investments on a discretionary or advisory basis, with short-term cash management provided through our Private Banking service. Additionally, if you want added diversity and flexibility, there is a wide range of leading collective investment funds to choose from and a service that reflects our clients' ethical concerns.

Corporate Finance

As a specialist corporate finance adviser, Brown Shipley assists small and medium sized public and private businesses to achieve their ambitions. Working in partnership with our clients, we address a range of key corporate finance and strategic issues. Our areas of expertise span floatations to rights issues, mergers and acquisitions to disposals, development capital to private placings. In addition, we provide advice and guidance on associated areas such as regulatory matters and investor communications.

Fund Management

As a fund manager for non tax-paying investors, Solus Investment Partners caters for the particular needs of charities, pension schemes and other investment funds. Our aim is to provide consultancy, administration and fund management expertise for organisations and individuals at a competitive cost. Investment performance, quality of investment advice and an understanding of specific needs and business sectors are our priorities.

Collective Investments

We offer a comprehensive range of collective investment schemes, providing access to equity and fixed-interest markets, whilst minimising the risks associated with direct investment. A wide choice of funds is available under our branded Solus range to meet different investment objectives and risk profiles. In addition, our MultiManager Service combines the diversification benefits of collective investments with the service and management associated with discretionary portfolios.
