How we’re different
Your money has power. By choosing a bank that's had a customer-led Ethical Policy since 1992, you’re choosing to withdraw from financing logging in the Amazon, unethical labour practices or investing in fossil fuels.
We are the bank you can hold to account.
We are The Co-operative Bank.

Independent service quality survey results
Business current accounts
Published February 2025
As part of a regulatory requirement, an independent survey was conducted to ask approximately 1,200 customers of each of the 16 largest business current account providers if they would recommend their provider to other small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs*). The results represent the view of customers who took part in the survey.
*SMEs include businesses, clubs, charities and societies with an annual turnover/income of up to £25m (exclusive of VAT and other turnover-related taxes).
