A: We’re not afraid to say it, profit matters. But there’s a difference between us and some other profit-seeking enterprises. At Vancity, profits go back to our members and their communities.
Yes, we want to make a profit. Because profit creates wealth—financial and economic prosperity. But our definition of wealth includes other things too. Like social well-being, environmental health, and community strength. Without all of these, there can be no such thing as a vibrant community. So who’s profiting from your deposits? You are. And we wouldn’t have it any other way.
And the service fees on your deposits are invested in Vancity’s technology, and service-focused enhancements as well as addressing regulatory requirements. They strengthen our capital base, operations and organization to ensure we continue to meet the needs of our members and their communities.
