Weatherbys Private Bank

Weatherbys’ wider family business dates to 1770, when James Weatherby became secretary and keeper of the Match Book for the Jockey Club. The group’s banking activities became a separate Weatherbys Banking Group in 2005, while the business remains family-owned and now spans private, business and racing banking plus asset finance.

Weatherbys Private Bank provides current and deposit accounts, foreign exchange, flexible lending, investment advice and wealth planning. Its clients include entrepreneurs, landowners, professionals, sports and entertainment figures, and families managing complex or intergenerational finances.

The bank is particularly differentiated by named private bankers and assistants, broad coverage across banking, lending and wealth advice, and a high-touch service model. Its 2025 client survey reported strong satisfaction metrics, while its internship and Associate Private Banker programmes offer early-career exposure to investments, lending, operations, risk and compliance.
