About Caisse d'Epargne de Cossonay société coopérative

Caisse d’Epargne de Cossonay société coopérative is a Swiss regional savings bank headquartered in Cossonay in the canton of Vaud, operating under a cooperative structure in which clients can become members with voting rights at the general assembly. The bank focuses on retail and small-business banking in its local catchment area, offering current and savings accounts, payment services, debit and credit cards (the latter typically via partner issuers), e-banking and mobile channels, and cash services at branches and ATMs. Lending activity centers on residential mortgages (including fixed-rate and SARON-linked options) and financing for local businesses, with interest rate and real estate concentration risks managed under Swiss prudential rules. Investment and pension solutions are available through in-house products and external partners, such as custody services, investment funds, and pillar 3a retirement accounts. Pricing follows standard Swiss practices, with packaged account fees, itemized charges for certain payments and transfers, and foreign-exchange spreads disclosed in the bank’s tariff schedule. Account opening requires identification and documentation in line with Swiss anti-money-laundering regulations; non-resident and cross-border services are limited and subject to additional conditions. The institution is supervised by FINMA and the Swiss National Bank and participates in the esisuisse depositor protection scheme, which secures eligible deposits up to CHF 100,000 per client and bank. Digital access is protected with multi-factor authentication, and data processing is aligned with Swiss banking secrecy and data protection law. The bank’s profile is that of a locally anchored institution prioritizing day-to-day banking, mortgages, and SME services rather than complex investment banking or international private banking.
