Developing a relationship with a Bank strongly benefits you and helps you to better track and reach your financial goals.

Let’s take a quick look at some of these benefits:

• Your money will be safe. 
• Besides offering different options for investing your money, having a relationship with the bank opens doors to new banking products that you might need in the future. What if something unexpected happens?
• You can also obtain financial advice on the products and services that are being offered.

The benefits that you will receive should pay off the costs that you will incur in establishing the relationship with the Bank.

The bank will also benefit from having more information available about the customer and thus reducing the risk involved in their operations.

When talking to your Bank:

• You need to be realistic, honest and have an open mind to listen to advice. 
• It is a good idea to communicate your future plans to the bank and see if they can offer you what best suits your needs.
• It is good to learn about all the options even though you might think that they do not interest you. You never know when an opportunity may arise.
