Bank of Valletta has opened a representative office in London.
It was inaugurated by Prime Minister Joseph Muscat, currently on a visit to the UK capital.
Deo Scerri, the bank's chairman, said the opening of the office was driven by the bank’s corporate strategy which sees this office as an important link in its network of representative offices.
"The opening of this new office underscores the Bank’s interest in the UK market which is important for Malta within a European regional context," he said.
The prime minister congratulated BOV.
“The opening of this Bank of Valletta office in London shows how much the Maltese economy and its banking system have evolved in recent years. We have become increasingly outward-focused, adopting a more proactive approach in seeking foreign direct investment and strengthening our international reach,” he said.
Dipak Chouhan will be responsible for the running of this Office located at 1, Berkeley Street, London (picture).
