About Raiffeisenbank Süd-Weststeiermark eGen

Raiffeisenbank Süd-Weststeiermark eGen is a regional cooperative bank in Styria, Austria, and part of the Raiffeisen Bankengruppe Österreich. As an eingetragene Genossenschaft it is member-owned and governed by a general assembly, supervisory board, and management board, and is supervised by the Austrian Financial Market Authority and the Oesterreichische Nationalbank. Its offering covers standard retail and SME banking such as current accounts, savings and term deposits, consumer and housing loans, mortgages, business and agricultural finance, plus access to leasing, insurance brokerage, and investment funds via group partners. Payments include SEPA credit transfers and direct debits, domestic EPS online payments, and contactless debit cards (typically Debit Mastercard) with 3-D Secure; availability of mobile wallets (e.g., Apple Pay or Google Pay) depends on the specific card program and may vary. Digital banking is provided through the Raiffeisen Mein ELBA online and mobile platforms with PSD2-compliant strong customer authentication; branches, self-service foyers, and the Raiffeisen ATM network cover cash services, while withdrawals at third-party ATMs can incur fees. Deposits are protected under Austrian and EU law by Einlagensicherung AUSTRIA up to EUR 100,000 per depositor, and the bank participates in the Raiffeisen institutional protection scheme, which is a stability mechanism rather than an additional deposit guarantee. Pricing is set locally and typically uses account packages with monthly maintenance, card, and out-of-package transaction fees; tariffs and product availability can differ from other Raiffeisen entities. Onboarding follows Austrian AML and KYC requirements; in-branch account opening is common, and online identification may be available depending on product and residency. The bank’s focus is regional, and international services beyond the SEPA area or multicurrency solutions are limited and may be handled via group companies. Service is primarily in German, and the extent of English-language support and documentation varies. Prospective customers should verify current fees, limits, digital features, and wallet compatibility directly with the bank before applying.
