WILLEMSTAD - Banco di Caribe director, Fons Simon, said today that his bank is solid and has no financial problems.

He responds to negative messages on social media. They were created after Banco di Caribe announced that it would close its branch in Punda because fewer clients were using the office in the heart of downtown.

According to Simon, Banco di Caribe has received many requests from former Girobank clients who want to open a new account.
