At Handelsbanken, relationship banking still lives up to its name. You only ever deal with people you know, and decisions are made locally by your branch.
Our simple aim is to provide the best possible service to our customers. That’s why all of our products are flexible, enabling us to tailor our solutions to your unique needs.
Founded in Sweden in 1871, Handelsbanken has become one of the world’s strongest banks with over 850 branches in 25 countries worldwide. We offer local relationship banking with products and services tailored to the needs of our personal and business banking customers. We entered the UK market in 1982 and have over recent years built a branch network to serve more and more local communities with their needs.
Our decentralised approach is central to our success, where each branch operates as a small business, enabling it to make decisions locally and to provide a service that is truly bespoke.
As a relationship bank, we are driven only by what our customers want, designing tailored solutions to suit their demands. And because we are not target driven, we take a long-term view, investing time to get to know our customers, their needs and ambitions.
Whether you are an individual or a corporate customer, you can expect to receive a high level of personal service with products designed to reflect your unique needs.
