About Us
Permanent Bank International Ltd (PBI) has been established in the Isle of Man since 1994 as a deposit taking bank, and provides a range of international deposit accounts in Sterling and Euro.
The Isle of Man is a Standard & Poors “AA+” rated jurisdiction, British Crown Dependency and a highly accredited international business centre. The Island boasts the longest continuous parliament in the world – now over 1,000 years old – and combined with stringent financial regulation, makes it a natural location for us from which to offer our range of products and services.
Our owner, Permanent TSB, is a leading provider of personal financial services in the Irish market with strong positions in retail banking. The structure chart below illustrates our position within the Group (www.permanenttsb.ie).
Our philosophy
We are a client focused bank and very keen to build long-lasting relationships taking time to get to know you and your requirements. When you call you will get straight through to one of our experienced client relations team who will do all they can to make doing business with us easy and enjoyable.
Our history and your security
Our parent company’s roots date back to 1884 with the establishment of the Irish Temperance Permanent Benefit Building Society culminating in the launch of Permanent TSB in 2002. The latest restructuring of the Group took place on 29th June 2012 and is reflected in the structure chart below.
When you deposit money with us you have the comfort of knowing that our Group is almost wholly owned by the Irish Government. Your deposit is further protected by the fact that PBI is a participant in the Isle of Man Depositors’ Compensation Scheme as set out in the Depositors’ Compensation Scheme 2010 (Isle of Man legislation). The Scheme details can be viewed at www.gov.im/FSC/investor/dep_comp.xml
