"The RBS emphasis on relationship banking gives them a deep understanding not only of my own business but of the sector in general. This has proved invaluable in helping me drive my business forward."
Tony Murley, Director of Renaissance Lifecare PLC
Saffronland Homes
"RBS has excellent market awareness, with informative price intelligence covering a range of sectors within the care industry. This enables a more effective decision-making process when examining potential acquisitions."
"They have also been very helpful in introducing me to other elements and services, both within the wider RBS network and to customers outside the organisation."
Amin Lakhani, CEO
Chacombe Park Limited
"Relationship banking with RBS has proved instrumental in developing and growing our business over the last six years. We feel they are part of our team - available at a moment's notice and supportive beyond the norms of professional banking. The service is exceptional and no price can be placed on that."
"We have been approached on numerous occasions by other banks providing cheaper finance - we would never consider moving as our relationship with the RBS team has proved invaluable."
"One's bank manager is normally the last person one would like to talk unless it's absolutely necessary. The reverse is true with RBS."
