About Bremische Volksbank eG

Bremische Volksbank eG is a regional cooperative bank headquartered in Bremen, Germany. As part of the Genossenschaftliche FinanzGruppe Volksbanken Raiffeisenbanken, it operates in the legal form eingetragene Genossenschaft (eG), with customers able to become members and participate in governance on a one-member-one-vote basis. The bank focuses on retail and small to mid-sized corporate clients in Bremen and the surrounding area, offering current accounts, savings and term deposits, consumer and mortgage financing, SME lending, payments (including SEPA), and card services. Investment and securities services are provided through the cooperative network, typically including products from Union Investment; insurance is distributed via R+V Versicherung, and building-savings contracts via Bausparkasse Schwäbisch Hall. Digital access includes online banking and the VR Banking app; cards commonly include Girocard and, where issued, Mastercard or Visa. Cash withdrawals are available across the Volksbanken Raiffeisenbanken ATM network (BankCard ServiceNetz). The institution is supervised by the Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) and the Deutsche Bundesbank and is a member of the Bundesverband der Deutschen Volksbanken und Raiffeisenbanken (BVR). Deposits are protected by the BVR Institutssicherung GmbH up to the statutory limit per depositor and per bank; the additional BVR Sicherungseinrichtung functions as an institutional protection scheme aimed at stabilizing member institutions. Pricing, eligibility, and product features depend on account type, risk assessment, and local tariffs, and branch presence and service hours are regional. The business model is relationship-based and locally focused rather than investment-banking oriented.
