Join the bank you can hold to account

Your money has power. By choosing us as your bank, you’re choosing to withdraw from having your money invested in the financing of fossil fuels, oppressive regimes, unethical labour practices, and so much more. Because it’s the things we won’t do that really set us apart.

We’re the bank you can hold to account.

We’re The Co-operative Bank.
