About CREDITO COOPERATIVO CASSA RURALE ED ARTIGIANA DI ERCHIE - SOCIETA' COOPERATIVA

Credito Cooperativo Cassa Rurale ed Artigiana di Erchie – Società Cooperativa is a local Italian cooperative bank based in Erchie (Apulia) that operates under the country’s cooperative credit framework, with member-owners exercising one-person-one-vote governance and access to products sometimes reserved for members against a share subscription. Its activity centers on traditional retail and small-business banking in the surrounding area, with a product set typically including current and savings accounts, payment services (SEPA transfers, cards, POS acquiring), online and mobile banking, and lending for households, small enterprises, agriculture, and artisans in line with its rural and craft origins. As with other cooperative banks, pricing, eligibility, and conditions can vary by branch and customer profile, and certain advantages or patronage returns may be linked to membership and local engagement rules. The institution is subject to Italian and EU banking regulations and prudential oversight (Bank of Italy and the European framework), applies standard transparency and complaint-handling requirements, and participates in the national deposit guarantee scheme that protects eligible deposits up to EUR 100,000 per depositor, per bank. Its risk profile is typical of small community-focused lenders: concentrated exposure to the local economy, funding predominantly from customer deposits, and a loan book sensitive to interest-rate and sectoral trends in the province; capital, liquidity, and asset quality metrics are disclosed in annual financial statements and Pillar 3 reports and should be reviewed for updated ratios, NPL coverage, and MREL/MREL-substitution progress. Prospective customers and counterparties should verify current fees and interest schedules, digital channel capabilities, card network coverage, and any membership requirements before onboarding, and businesses should assess credit availability, collateral standards, and payment acceptance support relative to their cash-flow cycle and seasonality.
