“I had my wealth management account with a large, national brokerage firm for several years. Service was OK, but I felt like I was not getting the attention I would like. I moved my account to Bank of the Bluegrass 4 years ago, and I have not looked back. I could not be more pleased with the performance and the service. My Relationship Manager and I meet once a quarter and more, if needed. My only regret is I did not move my relationship sooner.” -David Fisher

“There has not been a single time that I made a request that the Bank of the Bluegrass Wealth Management Team did not deliver, and never with delay. Having to ask a service provider only once for a request is a business model that needs to be imitated, especially in the current financial climate. From investment to banking to fiduciary needs, they cover all with professionalism and perfection.”-Esther von Unrug, Ph. D, Operations Manager for Thomas P. von Unrug MD
