About
The Julian Hodge Bank Company
Julian
Hodge Bank is a young institution in banking terms having obtained
authorised status under the Banking Act as recently as 1987. But
that belies the group's pedigree in that it was nurtured from the
same stable that created Chartered Trust plc and Bank of Wales plc.
All three institutions were founded by Sir Julian Hodge whose activities
since the 1950's are acknowledged as having been the catalyst behind
the development of the financial services sector that now exists
in South Wales.
The
Julian Hodge Bank remains an independent family controlled company
and there lies the key to its culture and philosophy that sets it
apart from many of the other financial institutions
The
core principle of the Julian Hodge Bank corporate philosophy is
a determination to foster and maintain a personal relationship with
customers as well as a genuine interest in the welfare of all those
with whom they have business relationships. The accent is on professionalism
allied to a thorough knowledge of the markets in which Julian Hodge
Bank operate combined with integrity and efficiency with a capacity
for innovation.
Such
ideals are not always easy to adhere to in today's complicated world,
but only by meeting or, preferably, exceeding customers' expectations
can Julian Hodge Bank hope to achieve success. Good communication
at a personal level within each business relationship is the essential
ingredient
Apart
from its business objectives, the group also recognises it's social
responsibility to the community and continues to provide financial
support for welfare, medical, academic ( Julian Hodge Institute
of Applied Macroeconomics ) and educational concerns. This is usually
through the medium of The Jane Hodge Foundation or the Sir Julian
Hodge Charitable Trust, charities which jointly own nearly 80% of
the ordinary share capital of the bank's parent company, The Carlyle
Trust Limited.
