Spółdzielcza Kasa Oszczędnościowo - Kredytowa im. Eugeniusza Kwiatkowskiego

Spółdzielcza Kasa Oszczędnościowo-Kredytowa im. Eugeniusza Kwiatkowskiego is a Polish cooperative credit union that operates under the Act on Credit Unions and is supervised by the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (KNF); deposits are covered by the statutory guarantee scheme run by Bankowy Fundusz Gwarancyjny (BFG) up to the equivalent of EUR 100,000 per member per institution, including accrued interest, with cooperative shares and membership fees not covered. As a member-based institution, access to products requires joining the union, paying a joining fee, and purchasing at least one participation share; the value, conditions of redemption, and waiting periods are defined in the statute (statut). The product set typically includes current and savings accounts, term deposits, domestic and international transfers, payment cards, and consumer lending (cash, consolidation, and secured loans), with pricing governed by published fee schedules and interest tables and with credit costs subject to statutory caps; loan decisions are based on documented affordability and credit checks. Service is delivered through branches and remote channels (online servicing and card payments are generally available; specific functionalities such as instant transfers depend on the settlement arrangements the union uses). Tariffs, interest rates, and eligibility rules can differ by product and may change; early termination of term deposits usually results in a loss of interest as per the terms. Members should review the statute, tariff of fees and commissions, interest tables, and standard terms before joining or applying, verify how deposit protection applies (noting that it does not extend to cooperative shares), and check the union’s current regulatory and financial status in the KNF and BFG public notices, particularly if maintaining balances near the guarantee limit.
