How toinvestyourclients'funds
The most important factor
When it comes to investing client funds, and
particularly so in the current economic climate,
safety and security must be paramount con-
siderations. Placing funds on deposit with a
reputable and sound institution undoubtedly
provides as near maximum safety as one can
get, in a year of floating currency fluctuations,
falling stock prices and many other un-
certainties.
Guinness +Mahon Ltd. werefounded in
1836,
and nowform apart of the GuinnessPeat Group,
whose interests embrace not only merchant
banking but commodity broking, merchanting,
insurance, food, shipping and aviation. Guinness
+Mahon are a Scheduled Bank under the
Solicitors Regulations Act, and are therefore an
authorised recipient of clients' funds. Deposits
with Guinness +Mahon also qualify as Auth-
orisedInvestments under the Trustee {Authorised
Investments) Act.
Profitable growth
Seeking sound growth undoubtedly forms
part of the protection you can give your client's
funds. Deposit interest rates with financial
institutions can vary significantly, both from
house to house, and according to the form of
deposit selected. It pays to make certain that
you are getting the best possible terms avail-
able at the time.
Guinness + Mahon offer extremely keen
deposit rates for various types of deposits, and
also go to great lengths in helping you choose
the type or length of deposit that suits you best.
A specific enquiry to Ian Kelly, the Deposits
Manager, Dublin, or Peter Tuite, Manager,
Cork, will give you an up-to-the-minute quota-
tion, and any advice you might require.
Professional expertise
As a professional yourself, you will un-
doubtedly appreciate a skilled, personal ap-
proach to your own problems. The whole area
of deposits and money markets is highly
skilled, and it pays you to choose an institution
whose expertise and connections reflect this.
Guinness +Mahon, as Merchant Bankers, can
offer a particularly satisfactory service in this
area. Deposits have always formed a significant
part of their total business, and they have built
up a formidable reputation for the skill and
personal attention they can provide to each of
their depositors.
Flexibility
The essence of merchant banking probably
lies in the flexibility and innovativeness which
merchant bankers can bring to the business of
banking. Each transaction can be treated on its
individual merits, and no run-of-the-mill solu-
tions, which may not truly mirror the require-
ments of the transaction, need be forced on it.
Guinness +Mahon pride themselves on the
imaginative and personal approach they can
take to each problem. This important element of
flexibility allows them to tailor your investment
solution to your exact requirements.
Reciprocality
Business is a two-way affair. The institution
you choose should be prepared to provide
finance for your clients in appropriate cases.
Guinness +Mahon are conscious that this is a
perfectly legitimate requirement on your clients'
part, and are very willing to consider proposals
on a selective basis, provided in general that
amounts exceed
£10,000
and that the need is for
short term working capital or finance of a
bridging nature.
