About Volksbank Rhein-Lippe eG

Volksbank Rhein-Lippe eG is a regional German cooperative bank operating in the Lower Rhine area of North Rhine-Westphalia, serving private clients, the self-employed, and small to mid-sized enterprises through a combination of local branches, advisory appointments, and digital channels. As part of the Volksbanken Raiffeisenbanken cooperative financial network, it offers standard retail and business banking products including current accounts, cards, SEPA payments, savings and term deposits, consumer loans, mortgages, and financing solutions for working capital and investment projects, alongside real estate brokerage and payment services. Investment funds, insurance, building society savings, and leasing solutions are typically provided via group partners such as Union Investment, R+V Versicherung, Bausparkasse Schwäbisch Hall, and VR Smart Finanz, with DZ BANK acting as the central institution. Account models are generally packaged with monthly fees and optional services; pricing, interest rates, and charges (including out-of-network cash withdrawals and foreign currency markups) are detailed in the bank’s schedule of fees and are subject to change. Online and mobile banking cover standard functions, and common mobile wallets may be available depending on card type and eligibility. Cash access is provided via the Volksbanken Raiffeisenbanken ATM network; withdrawals at third-party ATMs can incur fees. Governance follows the cooperative model: customers can become members by subscribing shares, members have voting rights, and a management board and supervisory board oversee operations. The bank is supervised by BaFin and the Deutsche Bundesbank and participates in the German cooperative sector’s institutional protection schemes in line with statutory requirements. Credit decisions depend on creditworthiness and collateral; capital market and insurance products carry risks disclosed in the respective documentation. Annual reports, Pillar 3 disclosures, and fee schedules provide additional detail on performance, risk, and costs.
