(Grand Cayman – 14 September 2017) This year marks a milestone for Butterfield Bank (Cayman) Limited as it celebrates its 50th Anniversary. The Bank, which was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on 17 November 1967, was one of the first in a handful of banks to be granted a full banking license in the jurisdiction.

Part of the Butterfield Group, the Cayman subsidiary offers a full suite of financial services —Community Banking, Corporate Banking, Private Banking, Investments and Trust services.

Butterfield is one of the Island’s leading retail banks with almost 300 full-time employees, and boasts a robust community giving programme, donating almost $250,000 to various charities each year.

“We want to share this anniversary with the community, with a special $50,000 donation to a charity or charitable initiative. We’re proud of how far we’ve come and we want to thank our customers, and our employees, for helping us to get here.” explained Managing Director Michael McWatt.

Applications from local charities and not-for-profit organisations are invited and should outline the initiative/cause that the funds would be used for and the ultimate benefit to the Cayman Islands. The deadline has been extended until Friday, 29 September 2017. More information and submission details can be found online at www.ky.butterfieldgroup.com
