We take pride in our ability to bridge the distance between our clients in Europe and the Americas, who are looking to expand into our global network, and vice versa.

The Europe and the Americas business is a centre of expertise for the Bank’s major product offerings, allowing us to provide a wide range of services, platforms and capabilities to meet the growing needs of our clients. As one of the Bank’s fastest-growing client franchises, our business in Europe and the Americas is pivotal to delivering the strategic aspirations of the Bank, connecting our network and clients.

We opened our UK office in 1853 and the London headquarters are also the main centre in Europe for our Corporate and Investment Banking business and where we also service our Private Bank clients. From Jersey, we offer Priority Banking services and Retail Banking in the Falkland Islands.

Our EU hub, Standard Chartered Bank AG, which is located in Frankfurt, with branches in France, Sweden and Poland, strengthens our presence across continental Europe and enables us to better serve our strategic and evolving EU Corporate and Financial Institutions client base.

Since 2018, Poland is home to our first European Global Business Services hub, a multi-disciplinary competency organisation, managing complex, large-scale, cross-border activities.

Standard Chartered is also present in multiple locations across North and South America, with our Americas headquarters located in New York. Our Americas franchise, focused on Corporate and Investment Banking business, is committed to providing financial products and services to multi-national corporations, financial institutions, public sector and development organisations.
