Role of Cooperative Banks in Banking Service of Local Government Units

Summary/Abstract: Local government units are an attractive client for each bank. Cooperative banks have also seen it increasingly and more willingly to cooperate. They offer their services to smaller local governments. Local character and responsibility for the development of the region stimulate cooperation on many levels. Through effective co-operation, cooperative banks should become a local center of competence and trust, naturally contributing to the local economic climate. The share of local government units in receivables and liabilities of the cooperative banking sector in comparison with other groups is small, despite a steady increase for several years. However, its stabilization is more important than its growth, providing a lasting relationship between cooperative banks and local governments.
