Butterfield Bank customers can get the benefit of some expert advice on investment thanks to a new business centre launched this week.

The new Butterfield Investment Centre, which is located on the second floor of its head office in Front Street, officially opened its doors for the first time yesterday.

The centre offers investors access to a team of experienced investment professionals from Butterfield Asset Management.

Curtis Dickinson, senior vice-president of wealth management, said: "Whatever plans our customers have for their future, whether they are uncertain where to begin, or are savvy, experienced investors, our team of investment professionals will assist them to reach their financial goals."

Management will be able to help investors with ascertaining short and long-term goals and financial objectives, determining their comfort level with risk, reviewing their financial health, explaining the various types of investment options to make informed decisions with their finances, and assisting them to develop investment strategies.
