The Bank of N.T. Butterfield & Son Limited (Butterfield) has closed the purchase of ABN Amro Channel Islands after securing regulatory approval.
The deal, valued at £161m, was announced this April.
ABN Amro Channel Islands provides investment management, banking and custody products. It had £3.5bn in assets under management and custody at the end of December 2018.
Under the agreement, the business will be completely integrated with Butterfield Bank (Guernsey) in the coming 12 months.
The rebranding process is over, with the acquired entity now operating under the name Butterfield Bank (Channel Islands).
Currently, existing relationship management contacts, services and client online banking access will remain unchanged.
