Where should I setup a bank account in Le Robert?

We asked expats in Le Robert what banks they use and there advice about banking. They advised...

"Before retiring in Le Robert, expats should know that the official language is French, so it would be beneficial to learn or have a basic understanding of the language. The cost of living can be high, especially when it comes to imported goods. Healthcare in Martinique is of a high standard, but it's advisable to have comprehensive health insurance. The climate is tropical, with a rainy and a dry season, and it is prone to hurricanes between June and November. The local currency is the Euro as Martinique is an overseas department of France. It's important to understand the local customs and traditions, which are a blend of French and Caribbean cultures. Expats should also be aware of the local tax laws and consider consulting with a financial advisor. Property prices can vary greatly, so it's recommended to research thoroughly or consult with a local real estate agent. Public transportation is available but having a car can be more convenient for getting around. Finally, while Martinique is generally safe, like any place, it has crime, so expats should take standard precautions to protect themselves and their property," commented one expat who made the move to Le Robert, Martinique.
