Spółdzielcza Kasa Oszczędnościowo-Kredytowa Przy "Dezamet" S.A.

Spółdzielcza Kasa Oszczędnościowo-Kredytowa przy “Dezamet” S.A. is a Polish cooperative credit union operating under the Act on Cooperative Savings and Credit Unions, supervised by the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (KNF) and covered by the Bank Guarantee Fund (BFG) up to the statutory limit equal to the PLN value of EUR 100,000 per depositor per institution. As a cooperative, access to services requires membership, typically involving an entry fee and the purchase of cooperative shares; the share contribution is refundable under the terms set in the statute, and members exercise voting rights on a one-member-one-vote basis. The product set aligns with what is standard in the SKOK sector: savings accounts, term deposits, and consumer loans (including cash and consolidation loans), along with basic payment services such as domestic transfers; credit assessment follows Polish consumer credit rules, and loans may involve commissions, insurance, or guarantors/collateral as defined in the tariff and internal regulations. Pricing is governed by published schedules and internal rules, with interest rates and fees subject to change; early withdrawal from term deposits may trigger penalties, and account servicing or cash operations can carry charges. Service is oriented around branch channels, and while some SKOKs provide online access, digital functionality and card/ATM integrations can be more limited than in commercial banks, so prospective members should review current channels and fees before joining. Given the sector’s history of restructurings, it is prudent to consult the KNF register and BFG information, as well as the union’s statute and tariff, to confirm operating status, deposit protection details, and up-to-date costs.
