Its nice to see this hackneyed excuse wheeled out - in the olden days, it was the excuse of choice, then it was insurance, then it was H&S, then GDPR now it is just a plain old act of God. A plain old act of Scrooge. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Correct. IOMB will not be able to open or close new HNWI or company accounts or to process significant transitions. HSBC are in the process of laying off most of their staff. Santander are about to lay off most of their staff too. You have limited options in terms of island banking. I personally recommend Barclays Bank.

The group parent in the UK won't be having one of their underlying companies being seen to organise or sponsor a mass gathered event in the current UK climate. It's exactly the same reason 90% of their staff remain working from home. The UK policy is being applied here. Move on folks RBS Group won't be going back to their offices until the New Year.

hissingsid 3,675 Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 I believe that there are a lot of IOMBank employees still working from home and a raft of voluntary redundancies are in view with more staff applying for them than redundancies on offer. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
