YOURS… TRULY

Nathaniel T. Butterfield was a clear-eyed, sensible traderwho made it his business to anticipate customers’ needs.When fellow merchants lacked financing options, Butterfieldresponded. Over 150 years ago, the firm’s evolution frominternational trade to international finance was the logical way to assist customers using our experience. And we’re still at it.

From our Bermuda roots, Butterfield has quietly and deliberatelyextended that expertise to several key international financialcentres. Today, while our forebears might marvel at thesophisticated tools and services we have access to, the Butterfieldtradition of mobilising our resources to serve the uniquefinancial needs of clients has never wavered.

Unique is not a word we use lightly. If more than a century ofbusiness dealings with individuals, families and institutionshas taught us anything, it’s that the contours of your particularfinancial fingerprint are like no other. Context is everything. Wealth is the means… but to what end? That’s why we focus firston understanding what matters to you: your goals; your world;your experience.

What we deliver are the advantages of the Butterfieldexperience… accessible, focused, seamless, performance-driven and — most importantly — insightful about the thingsthat affect your priorities.

YOURS… IN FOCUS

There’s no such thing as a typical Butterfield client… or typical needs.

On any given day we might be helping to set up a companyhere, purchase a yacht there or sell a property half wayaround the world — sometimes all for the same person.

Working closely with other advisers is essential — investmentmanagers, legal counsel, bankers in other jurisdictions.Our clients, and their advisory network, trust us to take careof every last detail. That’s where our international networkof experts gives our clients such an advantage.

But what matters most is not just how we handle the day-to-dayrequirements. It’s about how focused we are on understandingneeds that often go unspoken. It’s about not only listeningbut hearing. “Hearing” means paying attention to what’s reallygoing on… the context and nuances. That enables us to beproactive as well as highly responsive.

Relentless focus on what really matters is what earns Butterfieldlevels of trust with clients that often extend into secondand third generations. It’s a simple truth. People stay becausewe deliver what they need, time after time.

A lot of financial services companies talk about providing tailored services, butoften it’s just talk. At Butterfield, acustomer-centric approach is fundamentalto how we operate and how we’re organised.

We help you see the big picture and tend to the essentialdetails simultaneously, seamlessly. It’s a definingButterfield discipline.

Count on Butterfield for service that goes above and beyond,whether you work with us directly or through consultants. Thedifference is in the details… turning a complex institutionalletter of credit around in a matter of hours, streamlining theadministration of a company’s pension fund or creatingcomplex structured credit solutions.

Butterfield’s ability to orchestrate complex financialmanagement services comes from the breadth and depth ofour organisation’s knowledge. But we believe that financialexpertise must be tightly coupled with responsiveness andaccountability. It’s not just what we know that matters, but howwisely we can put it to use on your behalf that really counts.

We’re careful about what we promise because we takepersonal responsibility for keeping those promises… everysingle day.
