Be­ing in constant touch with leading slock brokers in London and the country, the bank is in a position to obtain informa­tion regarding all classes of stocks and shares in which cus­tomers may be interested. Shares maybe bought or sold with­out any charges beyond those payable lo a slockbrokcr and the bank is responsible for the collection of the proceeds of a sale and for the delivery of the certificate on a purchase. An investment report service is also often available for the\cus-lomer who needs a second opinion on a portfolio being man­aged personally.
