英王室御用達銀行のクーツ銀行がNigel Farageの口座を強制的に閉鎖

 Coutts & Co. /ˈkts/ is a British private bank and wealth manager headquartered in London. Founded in 1692, it is the eighth oldest bank in the world. Today, Coutts forms part of NatWest Group's wealth management division.[3] In the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, Coutts Crown Dependencies operates as a trading name of The Royal Bank of Scotland International Limited.[4] In 2021, Coutts achieved B-Corp Status becoming only the 3rd UK bank to achieve the certification.[5]21st century[edit]

In 2000, NatWest was purchased by the Royal Bank of Scotland Group in one of the largest corporate transactions in the European banking sector. RBS Group became NatWest Group in 2020.

In 2003, Coutts Bank (Switzerland) acquired Zürich-based Bank von Ernst & Cie.[10] Coutts Bank von Ernst became RBS Coutts Bank in 2008 to align with the parent Group and was renamed Coutts & Co. Limited in 2011. The international division was sold to Union Bancaire Privée (UBP) of Switzerland in 2015, for an undisclosed figure. This was part of the Group's strategy to reduce the number of countries it operated in, in favour of a greater focus on the United Kingdom.[11] Coutts' business in Europe, the Middle East, Singapore and Hong Kong was to be transferred to UBP, who were required to rebrand the business.[12]

In 2022, the Royal Bank of Scotland transferred its Adam and Company banking and lending business to Coutts using a banking business transfer scheme.The bank's headquarters are at 440 Strand, London. It closed its Canary Wharf, St Mary Axe, Cadogan Place and Fleet Street London offices in 2013,[14] and closed Premier Place in London in 2017.[15] Its current UK offices are listed on its Web site;[16] there were offices in 17 cities in 2022. There were international offices in Zurich, Berne, Geneva, Hong Kong, Montevideo, Singapore, Dubai, Jersey, Isle of Man, Miami, Monaco and Cayman Islands until the sale of Coutts International in 2015.

Clients[edit]

Until the 20th century Coutts was a clearing bank to the nobility and landed gentry, but then became a wealth manager to a wider range of clients, including entrepreneurs, entertainers, sportsmen, professionals, executives, lottery winners, and football players. The British Royal Family are notable clients; the bank was sometimes referred to as "the Queen's bank".[17][18] There are stringent requirements to being accepted as a client, not just based on financial assets. In 2001 prospective clients needed at least £500,000 in disposable funds;[18] in 2022 potential clients are asked "Are you looking to borrow £1m+?", or to use the bank's investment advisory services for assets over £1m+.[19]

In July 2023, former MEP Nigel Farage had his account closed by the bank, reportedly for failing to meet the required minimums.[20]
