Bank moves to larger Derby premises

Handelsbanken Derby has moved to bigger premises in a deal brokered by Innes England.

Handelsbanken’s Derby branch has relocated to The Arc, Pride Park, from its current branch on Pinnacle Way.

“The bank has taken a long-term lease within a prestigious building on Pride Park and will be increasing the size of their Derby branch by half as much again, which reinforces the company’s commitment to the city,” said Chris Wright, associate director at Innes England.

Ian Morris, branch manager of Handelsbanken Derby, said: “As we approach the completion of our first 10 years working with our customers in Derby, we are very pleased to have found new, larger premises on Pride Park to allow us to meet growing demand for our traditional and relationship-led banking services across Derbyshire.

“We look forward to welcoming customers new and old to our new office when we open for business later this year.”

Wright added: “Having a good understanding of the bank’s operation and standards, I knew The Arc would be a perfect fit for expansion of the Handelsbanken Derby branch. The Arc is a striking and iconic building on Pride Park worthy of a headquarters.”
