A pioneer of the Jamaican stock market and one of the island nation’s oldest asset managers – and, indeed, the oldest brokerage firm in the English-speaking Caribbean – NCB Capital Markets traces its corporate origins to the mid-1960s when the company – then called Edward Gayle & Co – held one of the first five seats on the Jamaican Stock Exchange. NCB Capital Markets has remained true to its original mission to help shape a vibrant financial industry, including a robust capital market that contributes towards the steady development of the country.
As the wealth and asset management division of National Commercial Bank, Jamaica’s largest financial services provider, NCB Capital Markets enjoys a commanding presence in the market, derived from its client-centric approach, comprehensive suite of investment and saving products, and its adherence to world-class standards.
The firm has an exceptionally well-developed business strategy that allows it to thrive in a highly competitive environment. By exploring innovative investment solutions and ways to engage with customers, NCB Capital Markets has managed to stay at the leading edge of the industry. The firm maintains a number of initiatives that allow its analysts and agents to continuously update and expand their skill set in order to source opportunities and tap into growth markets. As a result of this proactive approach, NCB Capital Markets regularly sets new industry benchmarks.
The CFI.co judging panel notes and appreciates the buzz which permeates the firm: this is a place where professionals are excited, if not passionate, about their work. The judges agree that such an attitude benefits customers. The judging panel declares NCB Capital Markets winner of the 2018 Best Wealth Management Team Caribbean Award.
