Harrods Bank Limited has been operating since 1893 and is an independently managed, private bank that operates from the Harrods store in Knightsbridge, London.

The firm says: “While we believe in the virtues of old-fashioned banking, we comply with all the rigorous standards required of a modern bank. We aim to bring to our customers the best of both worlds, providing a high quality personal service synonymous with the name of Harrods, while safeguarding your interests.

“We are committed to looking after our clients and their financial affairs. The driving force of the Bank is a commitment to each individual, which means treating every customer as more than just a number.”

The CML currently has 121 members, eight third party administrator members and 82 associates.
