Bridgetown, Barbados, September 17th, 2007 – As it

Loans to customers represent one of the key drivers of the

When asked to comment on FirstCaribbean’s financial
performance, Charles Pink, CEO, responded: “This is indeed
another indicator that our bank is financially strong and
healthy. I also acknowledge that we could not have achieved
this level of success year after year without the on-going
support of our 800,000 loyal customers and the dedication of
our more than 3,500 staff spread across the region.”
The Bank’s business performance continues to be singled out
for accolades. For the fourth year running, Global Finance
Magazine recently awarded the Bank the title of “Best Bank”
in Barbados, and the bank’s operations in Jamaica and The
Bahamas copped the title for the first time.
“We’re very pleased to have crossed the US$6 Billion of
loans mark. But the key is to delight our customers through
excellent customer service: delivering first class service
is the number one priority for our Bank, and we will be
relentless in our efforts to achieve this. I am very proud
of the enthusiasm, commitment and dedication shown by our
staff in achieving this important goal,” he concluded”.
