The ECFH Group is once again hitting all the right notes with sound support for the newly rebranded St. Lucia Jazz & Arts Festival.

Through its main subsidiary Bank of Saint Lucia, and in more recent times EC Global, ECFH is continuing its harmonious relationship with Saint Lucia Jazz, which contributes to socio-economic development on the island.

Marketing and Corporate Communications Manager at ECFH, Maria Fowell said: “We are excited about the new direction of St. Lucia Jazz with its new Arts element. ECFH is one of the financial institutions that give extensive support to the arts and cultural sectors, with the recent support of the National Arts Festival – Art Reach 2013.

The ECFH Group shares a symbiotic relationship with St. Lucia Jazz and this year is no exception - support of the festival stems back well over 17 years. This year BOSL has continued with Saint Lucia Jazz for another consecutive year as Bronze Sponsor of Main Stage Jazz, Silver Sponsor of Soufriere Creole Jazz and Gold Sponsor of Jazz in the South, with sister subsidiary EC Global as collateral sponsor of the ever popular Jazz on the Square.

Fowell said: “We are especially proud of our association with the festival at the community level as evidenced by our support of the community based events like Soufriere Creole Jazz and with Labowi Promotions for the 17th consecutive year for the staging Jazz in the South and for the role these activities play both in the development and exposure of our world class local performers as well as economic activity which these events generate in the communities – this is why supporting the event is essential to the Group’s role in St Lucia as a catalyst for development.”

ECFH partnership with Saint Lucia Tourist Board through Bank of Saint Lucia also brings the convenience of core banking services to Main Stage Jazz at the Pigeon Island National Landmark. These include Quick Cash Convenience Centre complete with Teller Services, including deposits and withdrawals from BOSL accounts, Foreign Exchange and Credit Card Cash Advances, and other convenience services including cash breakdowns for concessionaires as well as wireless point-of-sale service, Swipe on the Go.
