A co-operative bank is a financial entity which belongs to its members,
who are at the same time the owners and the customers of their bank.
Co-operative banks are often created by persons belonging to the same
local or professional community or sharing a common interest.
Co-operative banks generally provide their members with a wide range
of banking and financial services (loans, deposits, banking accounts)

9. Features
Customer-owned entities:
In a co-operative bank, the needs of the customers meet the needs of the
owners, as co-operative bank members are both. As a consequence, the
first aim of a co-operative bank is not to maximise profit but to provide
the best possible products and services to its members. Some co-
operative banks only operate with their members but most of them also
admit non-member clients to benefit from their banking and financial
services.
10. Democratic member control:
Co-operative banks are owned and controlled by their members, who
democratically elect the board of directors. Members usually have equal
voting rights, according to the co-operative principle of “one person, one
vote”.
11. Profit allocation:
In a co-operative bank, a significant part of the yearly profit, benefits or
surplus is usually allocated to constitute reserves. A part of this profit
can also be distributed to the co-operative members, with legal or
statutory limitations in most cases. Profit is usually allocated to
members either through a patronage dividend, which is related to the use
of the co-operative’s products and services by each member, or through
an interest or a dividend, which is related to the number of shares
subscribed by each member.

co-operation, self-help, and mutual help. They function with the rule of
"one member, one vote" function on "no profit, no loss" basis. Co-
operative banks, as a principle, do not pursue the goal of profit
maximisation. Co-operative bank performs all the main banking
functions of deposit mobilisation, supply of credit and provision of
remittance facilities.

and rural sector. However, UCBs, SCBs, and CCBs operate in semi
urban, urban, and metropolitan areas also.
