How it all came to be…
Investing in the community to build community
Established over 25 years ago, we’re proud to be local. As an independent company with a volunteer Board of Directors, we operate under a Franchise Agreement with Bendigo Bank, one of Australia’s largest and most trusted banks. While it might seem complex, it’s actually quite simple “The Community Wanted a Bank, and The Community Bought a Bank” with more than 300 community banks across Australia now forming part of the Bendigo Bank network.
