Close Brothers Limited are a highly regarded and long established UK merchant bank with its head office in the City of London.  Close Brothers Group was established in 1878, and is the UK’s largest independent Merchant Banking group.   The bank is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority, and accepts deposits and trades foreign exchange under the Financial Services and Markets Act, 2000.

As a bank rather than a broker, Close Brothers can give our clients very competitive exchange rates, whether they are making a spot purchase, or are buying forward to take advantage of the strength of the pound against the dollar.  Their approach is friendly and professional, with a focus on providing exceptional personal service, with no fees or charges.  Close Brothers have all the details of the fund transfer requirements for each of the Brookes investment recommendations, taking the stress out of currency transfers for purchasers. 

For further information or guidance on currency purchasing or fund transfers, contact Mark Taylor in the Treasury division on 020 7655 3100 or email mtaylor@closebrothers.co.uk
