Consumer-power
Becoming a customer owned bank has allowed bankmecu to reach a broader group of people who are looking for their money to be invested in ways that provide security and a competitive return whilst benefiting the community and the environment.
“We know that people will only bank with us if we can offer them competitive products backed by excellent service,” says bankmecu Managing Director Damien Walsh
