About BANCA DELL'ELBA CREDITO COOPERATIVO - SOCIETA' COOPERATIVA

BANCA DELL'ELBA CREDITO COOPERATIVO - SOCIETA' COOPERATIVA is a local cooperative bank operating on the island of Elba in Tuscany, focused on retail clients, professionals, and small businesses in its catchment area. As a BCC, it follows a mutualistic model in which customers can become members by subscribing cooperative shares that grant voting rights and potential access to specific conditions; these shares are not covered by deposit insurance, can fluctuate in value, and may be subject to redemption limits set by the bylaws. The bank offers standard products for individuals and firms, including current accounts, savings and time deposits, debit and credit cards on domestic (Bancomat/PagoBANCOMAT) and international circuits, SEPA transfers and direct debits, pagoPA/CBILL bill payments, POS and acquiring services, and internet/mobile banking; lending solutions typically include mortgages, personal loans, lines of credit, and financing to small enterprises and local organizations, often with pricing indexed to Euribor/IRS plus a spread. It distributes insurance and investment services through the cooperative banking network and third-party partners. Deposits are protected up to 100,000 euro per depositor under EU rules through the Fondo di Garanzia dei Depositanti del Credito Cooperativo; payment services follow PSD2 with strong customer authentication. Governance and prudential oversight are subject to Italian and EU banking regulation, with risk controls and reporting aligned to the cooperative banking group’s framework. Pricing is published in the “fogli informativi” and “documenti di sintesi,” with typical charges for account packages, cards, transfers, and out-of-network ATM withdrawals; conditions vary by product and customer profile. Strengths are proximity to the local economy and knowledge of the territory; constraints include a limited physical footprint outside Elba and a product/digital offering that depends on group platforms and partners. Prospective customers should assess membership obligations, fees, and service availability versus their needs, and review the bank’s official disclosures before opening accounts or subscribing shares.
