Banco Cooperativo Espanol

Founded in 1990, Banco Cooperativo Español serves as the central financial institution for the cooperative banks and rural credit unions that form the Grupo Caja Rural in Spain. Its mission is to enhance the competitiveness and efficiency of its member entities by providing a wide range of wholesale banking services, including treasury management, international trade financing, capital markets access, payment systems, technological platforms, and specialized financial solutions. It functions as a "bank for banks," centralizing operations and providing scale to allow local cooperative banks to compete effectively in the national and international markets.
