The FINANCIAL — The prestigious economics magazine Euromoney has named Bank Leumi’s private banking services as the best private banking in Israel for 2009.
The selection of Bank Leumi, to be published in the February edition of the magazine, is based on a survey conducted by the magazine with the participation of 45,000 senior private banking managers, customer relations managers and investment advisers throughout the world.
The magazine chose the best private banking services of each continent and of each country in the world. Israel’s Bank Leumi was chosen, as mentioned above, as the leading bank in Israel for private banking.
Among the criteria upon which the magazine’s decision was based was an examination of the level of the banks’ private banking services in each country, the level of profitability in this segment, total managed assets, the range of products, market share, reputation, and more.
The head of the International and Private Banking division of Bank Leumi, Mr. Zvi Itskovitch, said that Euromoney’s choice, based on the input of tens of thousands of professionals all over the world, accentuates the high level of service and uncompromising professionalism of Leumi’s private and international banking services.
