Community Bank • Trafalgar & District
At Community Bank Trafalgar & District, we are committed to seeing our community thrive. To date, we have invested over $1.9 million back into the community, generating tremendous impact. We owe this success to our loyal customers, whose support helps drive positive change in our community.
We understand that thriving communities contribute to the success of businesses, and our priority is to see our region prosper for the benefit of all. We are dedicated to building partnerships with local community organisations to maximise our funding resources. By doing so, we aim to solidify our role as a vital community asset that benefits everyone involved.
Trafalgar & District Financial Services (TDFS) is the company that holds the franchise for the Trafalgar site. Community Banks are managed by a board of volunteer directors with a strong connection to their community. Essentially, it is run by the community, for the community.
Community banking operates on a 'profit-for-purpose' model, which means that profits are reinvested directly into the community that generated them.
The funding for our community investment initiatives is sourced from the profits generated by banking services offered at our branch in Trafalgar.
Community Banks are the ones truly making a difference in their communities, thanks to our valued customers.
The bulk of our profits are funneled back into the community.
Its important to underscore that while we offer everything that other banks do, we also value the power of face-to-face interactions. At Community Bank Trafalgar & District, we strive to maintain and nurture that personal connection with our customers.
