This is Our Home Too

Democratic Ownership
When you’re part of KSCU, you’re a member and owner, with a voice and a vote. This isn’t just lip service, it’s a foundational value of co-operatives and one that we take very seriously. This value shows up time and again, from voting for elected Directors, to our member surveys, all the way down to the way you’re treated anytime you walk through the door or talk to us on the phone. It’s just different here.
Local Decision Making
Our head office and all of our branches are in the Kootenays. That means all our decisions are made in the Kootenays where we understand the needs and values of our community — because it’s our home too. It gives us the flexibility to have a more personal, and human touch, when it comes to your finances, your business finances and community decisions.
Profit Sharing
As a member and owner of Kootenay Savings, you share in the profits. It means that when we do well, you do well. They are given based on our previous years financial performance, represent a core value of co-operatives, and it’s another way we work to keep money in the Kootenays.
