The Bank\u2019s mission is to provide innovative and easily accessible services to all citizens and support entrepreneurs. As a cooperative bank, the Bank remains true to its founding principles based on the Raiffeisen co-op societies that emerged in the late 1800s.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Today, Cooperative Central Bank is found at the leading edge of the financial services industry in Cyprus offering a wide range of products and services through its member societies. CCB boasts a nationwide reach ensuring all Cypriots are able to avail themselves of the Bank\u2019s services.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">CCB is a member of the Geneva-based International Cooperative Alliance, the largest non-governmental organisation in the world, which supports the global cooperative movement. CCB adheres to a strict code of corporate governance and is characterised by its commitment to transparency.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Since the recapitalisation of the Cooperative Credit Sector in 2014 the state owned CCB was able to build up its buffers and successfully passing pass a number of stress tests.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The CFI.co judging panel recognises the value of cooperative banking as a promoter of financial inclusion and social progress. The judges also acknowledge CCB\u2019s contribution to the global cooperative movement and applaud its adherence to cooperative values.
