As a customer owned organisation, we’re not like a major bank; our profits don’t go to external shareholders. By banking with us, your money is being used for good by an organisation that cares as much about the environment, your community and an ethical banking industry as you do.
Sustainability
Through our adoption of four of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals – Climate Action; Gender Equality; Decent Work and Economic Growth; and Sustainable Cities and Communities - we’re committed to environmental, social and business sustainability.
Being the first financial institution to achieve Gold Partner Accreditation in the NSW Government's Sustainability Advantage Program demonstrates outstanding environmental achievements and leadership. It follows our larger commitment to environmental sustainability.
We have also achieved White Ribbon Accreditation, by having zero tolerance of any form of harassment, bullying abuse, violence or discrimination. Respectful relationships provide a strong foundation for our workplace culture; expressing the way we do business with our customers. It’s one of the reasons we were recently awarded Kincentric Employer of the Year.
