The story

Hamilton Reserve Bank was established as a digital-first, privacy-focused international private bank headquartered in the Caribbean, positioning itself as the largest global bank in that region. It targets high-net-worth individuals and businesses from over 150 countries, requiring minimum account balances of $50,000–$100,000. The bank differentiates on speed (fastest bank wires), privacy (Caribbean jurisdiction), and modern infrastructure (Temenos core banking), while leveraging BNY Mellon as its custodian and correspondent banking partner to provide institutional-grade custody and global reach.
