How Do I Pay Money In?
The minimum initial deposit for an International Account is £10,000, $20,000 or €20,000. Subsequent transactions must be for a minimum of £500, $1,000 or €1,000.

Cheques should be made payable to the Account holder(s) and sent to us by post.

Sterling and euro cheques drawn on banks outside the British Isles, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, and US dollar cheques drawn on banks outside the USA will attract agents’ charges. These, together with currency cheques, may take several weeks to clear.
