Cedrus Invest Bank: Best Bank Governance Lebanon 2017
Excellence in corporate governance is key to sustained profitability. Whilst this is true in any industry, the financial services sector in particular benefits from transparency, communication, and adherence to the highest standards of governance. Taking the interests of all stakeholder into account helps create confidence which, in turn, establishes trust and builds long-term relationships that strengthen the bottom line.
Cedrus Invest Bank, successor to the commercial and retail operations of Standard & Chartered in Lebanon, has adopted a comprehensive corporate governance framework that is considered the new benchmark in the country. The bank’s governance code comprises a number of pillars: corporate discipline, independence, and social responsibility amongst others.
Founded in 2011 and the largest niche bank in Lebanon, Cedrus Invest Bank counts on the expertise of two seasoned and well-known Lebanese bankers who set out to create a financial services provider that is global in scope whilst serving the needs of regional clients. Their vision, now implemented, was to create a full-service bank offering clients an experience that stands out in quality and ethics.
Cedrus Invest Bank has become a premier boutique bank specialised in helping high-net-worth individuals, family offices, and corporates preserve and grow their capital. The bank offers one-stop access to global equity markets, and wealth management and investment banking services throughout the Middle East and North Africa.
Clients looking for a bank with an entrepreneurial spirit similar to their own will find in Cedrus Invest Bank a dependable and highly capable partner. The CFI.co judging panel is pleased to offer Cedrus Invest Bank the 2017 Best Bank Governance Lebanon Award.
