''' | '''Bordellaux Palm Gates Banking Company''', trading as '''Bordellaux Palmgate''' is a [[Pribraltar|Pribraltarian]] {{wp|bank}} that specialises in high-confidentiality personalised banking services for high-networth individuals, {{wp|family office}}s, and enterprises. Founded as a {{wp|merchant bank}} in 1889 by Pribraltarians Pertran Dumórêv and Albertus Magnus Kerr<ref>A.M. Kerr is a second cousin twice removed of noted financial misunderstanding victim [[Juan Kerr]]</ref> and [[Cartadanian]] Armando da Guava, Bordellaux Palmgate gradually moved towards providing bespoke service to only the wealthiest merchants and firms involved in the lucrative Vallos-Kindreds trade. The bank rocketed to prominence during the [[Kiravian Civil War]] as the tide began to turn against anti-communist forces, spurring rapid {{wp|capital flight}} as the Kiravian bourgeoisie, major companies, and well-endowed nonprofit institutions (such as the [[University of Belarus]]) rushed to move their assets overseas for safekeeping. Initially, a great deal of this money was stowed away in [[Æonara]]- or [[Rovaīon]]-based banks or the sophisticated [[Caphirian]] financial system, until Pribraltarian banks, with Bordellaux Palmgate at the forefront, entered the ring offering friendly Coscivian-speaking staff and tax advantages derived from their home island's special legal status. | ||
The bank is named for the {{wp|private park}}, use of which is reserved for paying customers, which is populated with well-tended {{wp|Bismarck palm|Bordellaux palm}}s<ref>The {{wp|Bismarck palm|Bordellaux palm}} was named by Kiravian botanist Mungo MacIlwain in honour of his patron, the [[Yonderian]] nobleman [[Louen de Bordelleaux]] of the famed [[House de Bordellaux]]</ref> and palmettos, which surrounds its sandstone perimeter wall, as well as for its ornate bronze entrance gate. | |||
