On 9 July 2015, international finance and banking publication 'Euromoney' magazine voted Banque Internationale à Luxembourg (BIL) 'Best Bank in Luxembourg' at the Awards for Excellence 2015 ceremony, held in London.
The idea behind the awards, now in their 24th consecutive year, is to highlight individuals and banking associations that have demonstrated outstanding leadership, innovation and drive.
Euromoney stated that the bank had exhibited strong financial results and dynamism in its commercial activities, despite having only regained its independence three years previously and despite the introduction of the automatic exchange of tax information in Luxembourg on 1 January 2015. Euromoney also highlighted BIL’s capacity for innovation in the fields of internet and mobile banking.
“The title of Best Bank in Luxembourg is testimony to the efforts made by BIL, particularly in the area of client-centric innovation," stated Hugues Delcourt, BIL’s Chief Executive Officer. "In 2014, the Euromoney Private Banking and Wealth Management Survey had already voted BIL 'Best Local Private Bank in Luxembourg' and 'Best Private Bank for Super Affluent Clients'. Such distinguished accolades over two consecutive years are clear evidence of the industry’s recognition and of BIL’s ability to offer innovative and relevant products and services to its clients. This award is also a perfect illustration of how our BIL2020 strategy is already generating positive results."
