February’s business update amid COVID-19

This February, we published an update as to how we as a business are operating during the coronavirus pandemic.
Published 4 February

We hope our clients and their families are safe and well during this challenging time.

 

Our last update was in January and since then the coronavirus situation has continued to impact people and businesses around the world. We follow government guidance throughout our offices.

What is the current situation?

  • Following the conclusion of the Isle of Man circuit-breaker lockdown, all staff have returned, and the office is open to visitors
  • In Jersey most of the team are working from home with only critical functions working from the office.
  • All of the UK team are working from home and the office remains closed to visitors.
  • The Dubai team are primarily working from the office.
  • In Guernsey most of the team are working from home with only critical functions working from the office.

 

We continue to follow government guidance across our locations. Staff remain dedicated to providing the excellent support to clients that has underpinned this unexpectedly prolonged period of uncertainty.

Business as usual

The recent spikes in cases in some areas have meant changes in our working practices again, however it continues to be business as usual at Nedbank Private Wealth.  As a reminder:

 

  • We have updated a number of our processes to allow additional flexibility, and will continue to offer the full range of our services to all clients with the normal high levels of care and security.
  • Our private banking and client services teams are available to help clients with their day-to-day investment, banking and lending needs. All our telephone lines and email addresses will be managed as normal.
  • The focus of our investment specialists is to guide clients through any periods of unusual market volatility, and our investment committee meets frequently.
  • Our wealth planning specialists are available to help create and manage financial plans, including updated cash flow modelling.
  • All our staff remain extra vigilant in respect of potential fraud attempts – keeping our clients and their money safe from fraudsters who may be attempting to take advantage of the coronavirus pandemic. Our protect yourself from fraud  page has advice on keeping your money safe from fraudsters.

What does this mean for clients?

It is business as usual across our organisation, however we encourage clients to use our mobile app or online banking service for payments, transfers and foreign exchange. This is the fastest and most secure way of transacting. 

 

Clients can get in touch with their private bankers or relationship managers in the usual way: by telephone; email; or Qwil chat. Alternatively, clients can contact our client services team by email on client.services@nedbankprivatewealth.com or call +44 (0)1624 645000.

 

Nedbank Private Wealth’s overriding priority remains the health and safety of our staff, clients and communities, and our focus remains to protect our clients, advise them with integrity, and make their lives easier.
