About Us

The East Caribbean Financial Holding Company (ECFH) is the bold embodiment of its stated vision, Global Growth from Local Roots. ECFH is the proud product of a merger of two financial institutions, the then National Commercial Bank (NCB), and the Saint Lucia Development Bank (SLDB) in 2001. The merger objectives were to provide a broader range of banking, financial and related services at a lower cost and a higher level of efficiency than was previously provided by these institutions operating independently. The Group instantly became Saint Lucia’s leading financial institution.
