Standard Chartered : serving the emerging nations Set up by James Wilson in 1853, at the request of Queen Victoria, Standard Chartered aimed to finance and manage trade between the British Empire and its colonies in India, Australia and China. The end of the Empire did not cause the bank's downfall and it adapted to the new political and economic climate. Today it offers traditional banking services : retail banking, fund management and account services to private citizens, professionals and institutions. Standard Chartered, generally known as Stanchart, has made a very original choice. It mainly operates in emerging countries : Asia-Pacific, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa. In all, it has 500 branches in 56 countries.
