About Us

We’re entirely owned by charitable foundations, trusts and social purpose organisations. So when we say we’re an ethical bank, we mean it. 

Charity Bank is the bank for people
driven to change the world

We bring together passionate savers, who want their savings to make a difference, with organisations seeking loans
to create real change in the lives of people, communities, and the planet – both now and for the long term.

“Charity Bank is not an ordinary bank, we’re a community of people who are working to make a positive social impact. We’re here to align financial resources with values and a commitment to social progress.”

Ed Siegel, CEO, Charity Bank
