Coastal Community
Coastal Community Credit Union is a credit union located in British Columbia. It was founded in 1945. It primarily serves Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands.
Coastal Community Credit Union traces its origins to 1945, when Vancouver Island residents began organizing a cooperative financial institution. Nanaimo & District Credit Union was incorporated the following year and later became part of the institution now known as Coastal Community Credit Union.
Coastal Community has grown through mergers and acquisitions into the largest Island based financial organization serving Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands. It offers personal, business, and commercial banking, along with insurance services and wealth management through related Coastal Community organizations and partners.
Coastal Community’s work focuses on financial health, local decision-making, and community investment. Through grants, scholarships, sponsorships, and local partnerships, it supports initiatives in the communities where its members and employees live and work.
