The bank says gaining approval from the UK's Financial Conduct Authority and the Prudential Regulation Authority 'bolsters the reputation of the Island's regulatory environment.'
Conister Bank's accomplishment has been acknowledged as a significant moment in history, further reinforcing the Island's standing in the financial sector.
