About Volksbank Viersen e G

Volksbank Viersen eG is a regional cooperative bank based in the Viersen area and part of the Volksbanken Raiffeisenbanken network in Germany. Its offering covers everyday retail and small-business banking, including current accounts, savings and term deposits, SEPA payments (transfers, standing orders, direct debits), card services (girocard/debit and credit cards), consumer loans, mortgages, and corporate lending, with access via local branches, online banking, a mobile app (VR Banking), and the nationwide BankCard ServiceNetz of ATMs. Pricing typically follows a package model with monthly account fees and charges for certain transactions or out-of-network cash withdrawals; interest rates and overdraft terms are set in the bank’s price and service schedule and vary by product and customer profile. As a cooperative, customers can become members by purchasing shares, obtaining voting rights at the general meeting and a potential dividend subject to annual results; business activities are focused on the defined regional market. Securities and investment funds are available through cooperative partners such as Union Investment, building society savings and home finance via Bausparkasse Schwäbisch Hall, and insurance products through the R+V network. Deposits are protected by BVR Institutssicherung GmbH (the statutory deposit guarantee scheme for cooperative banks) and by the additional institutional protection scheme of the BVR; the bank is supervised by BaFin and the Deutsche Bundesbank. Digital services include standard features such as transfers, standing orders, e-statements, notifications, card controls, and strong customer authentication using app-based TAN (e.g., SecureGo plus) or chip/photo TAN procedures; availability of specific functions and third-party wallet support depends on the bank’s product configuration. Customer service is provided locally during branch hours and through remote channels, and account opening and lending decisions require identity verification under German AML/KYC rules and may be limited to residents or businesses within the operating region; detailed conditions, cut-off times, and limits are set out in the published schedule of prices and services and product information sheets.
