3 Questions to Leonard Crann

We asked Leonard Crann, General Manager of LBBW New York Branch and Regional Head Americas, about the people who use his services and what his customers expect.

1. Who uses your services and expertise?

The New York Branch is active in four business lines: corporate finance, real estate finance, project finance and financial markets. Therefore, our customers cover a wide range, among them subsidiaries of European corporates, US companies, central and other banks plus a multitude of specialized funds.

2. What attractive options do customers often underestimate?

In terms of corporate finance, the excellent cooperation between LBBW’s head office and international offices can add value to the customers. Companies can use the benefit of incorporating their foreign subsidiaries as potential borrowers into ancillary facilities set up in their home markets. The New York Branch provides excellent and timely service to its customers.

3. How can you surprise customers?

LBBW has been active in the USA for over 30 years and has a long-term view of the market. LBBW has operated reliably through many economic cycles and business shocks. Though the New York Branch is a rather small bank in the US market, it has developed a niche business model and can compete with larger local banks selectively.

Above all, foreign trade is the engine that drives the economy.
