About Bank Leerau Genossenschaft

Bank Leerau Genossenschaft is a small Swiss cooperative bank based in the Leerau area of the canton of Aargau, focused on retail and small business banking with a local footprint. Its offering covers day-to-day accounts and payments, savings, mortgages (including fixed-rate and market-linked structures), basic investment and pension products (such as pillar 3a), debit and credit cards provided with Swiss partners, and standard e‑banking with features like QR-bill processing, standing orders, eBill, and mobile access. The cooperative structure gives members voting rights at the general assembly; any member return is determined by the institution according to its statutes and results. The balance sheet is typically dominated by customer deposits funding residential and commercial mortgages, which concentrates interest-rate and regional credit exposure, while capital and liquidity are governed by Swiss regulatory requirements. The bank is supervised by FINMA and the Swiss National Bank, and eligible deposits are protected up to CHF 100,000 per client under the Swiss depositor protection scheme. Pricing follows common Swiss regional-bank practice: account and payment fees published via a tariff schedule, package offers for private clients, individually quoted mortgage conditions, and custody and transaction charges for securities; fees apply for certain cash withdrawals, foreign transactions, and paper statements. Access is centered on a small branch network with limited hours, complemented by online channels; two-factor authentication is standard for e-banking, and client onboarding and advisory are oriented to the local catchment area and German-speaking clientele. The bank serves residents and SMEs seeking proximity and local credit decisions; it is not positioned for complex corporate needs, international private banking, or advanced multi-currency trading, and its digital ecosystem is narrower than that of national providers, but it covers the core requirements of everyday banking within its region.
