Financial Services and Call Centres have become an established and highly successful sector within Cheshire and have seen considerable growth over the last few years.
With 535 businesses, employing around 23,000 people and an annual GVA of £1 billion (projected to increase to £1.3 billion by 2015), Cheshire has been particularly successful in attracting financial services firms seeking a national or European base. MBNA Europe Bank Ltd, now part of Bank of America, set up its European headquarters more than a decade ago, as did Marks and Spencer Money, now part of HSBC.
Other major companies in this sector include: Barclays Bank plc, Bristol Myers Squibb Business Services Ltd, Cheshire Building Society, HBOS plc and Royal London Mutual Insurance Society.
