About Spar- und Darlehnskasse Börde Lamstedt-Hechthausen eG

Spar- und Darlehnskasse Börde Lamstedt-Hechthausen eG is a regional cooperative bank in Lower Saxony serving private customers, small businesses, and agriculture in and around Lamstedt and Hechthausen. As an eingetragene Genossenschaft, it is member-owned with voting rights tied to cooperative shares and governed by a management board and a supervisory board. The bank provides standard retail and SME services including current accounts, SEPA payments (transfers, direct debits, standing orders), savings products, consumer and mortgage lending, and business and agricultural finance, along with debit and credit card issuance and access to the cooperative BankCard ServiceNetz of ATMs. Online and mobile banking are available with strong customer authentication under PSD2, typically using TAN procedures such as chipTAN or app-based pushTAN (e.g., SecureGo plus), and contactless payments on cards are supported. Securities, investment funds, and insurance are commonly offered via the German cooperative financial network’s product partners (such as DZ BANK, Union Investment, and R+V Versicherung). Deposits are protected under the BVR Institutssicherung GmbH up to the statutory limit of 100,000 euros per person and bank, and the cooperative institutional protection scheme aims to prevent member-bank insolvency. The institution is supervised by BaFin and the Deutsche Bundesbank and follows EU and German banking regulations. Pricing follows published fee schedules and interest rate notices; account models and card packages typically carry monthly fees, and lending decisions generally involve creditworthiness checks through established German credit bureaus. Customers can open accounts and manage services via local branches and remote channels, with contractual terms, price information documents, and product sheets provided in German.
