Duncan Lawrie Limited, known simply as Duncan Lawrie, was a small private bank with its head office in Belgravia, London. Founded in 1971, the bank offered a bespoke service, with an emphasis on a personal relationship, to high-net-worth individuals. It is in the process of winding down its operations.[1]
The bank is now 100% owned by Camellia Plc, but it can trace its origins back to two Scottish businessmen, Alexander Lawrie and Walter Duncan, who travelled to Calcutta in the mid-19th century to make their fortunes as general merchants. Their businesses were merged in 1967.[2]
The bank has several offices across the United Kingdom, including a branch in Bristol, a country estate in Kent, and an international banking, investment and fiduciary business in the Isle of Man as well as its head office in Belgravia, London.[3]
Clienteleedit
While the bank places emphasis on confidentiality and never reveals its clientele, it is widely believed that numerous aristocrats, politicians, entrepreneurs and media figures hold accounts with the bank.[4]
Servicesedit
Duncan Lawrie predominantly holds accounts for high-net-worth individuals.

In 2005 the bank purchased Douglas Deakin Young, and in 2007 it acquired Hill Martin and Hill Martin Asset Management.
