Savings
Triodos Bank offers savers the chance to invest in one of several specific areas through our targeted accounts (the Earth Saver, Organic Saver, Dana Partnership, Quaker Social Housing and Just Housing accounts). Otherwise, savings are targeted more generally to the areas in which the bank invests.
Triodos Bank staff use their expertise and judgement to assess each loan application on its own merits, analysing a project’s social and environmental ‘added value’ as well as its financial performance. This means that we support a wide variety of initiatives in many sectors, all over the UK and Ireland, reflecting the growing strength and diversity of the social economy.
If you have any comments on our investments, then please tell us – it’s your savings which make this possible and we want your feedback on the decisions we’ve taken. The choice you make in saving with Triodos Bank means that people in all parts of the UK can develop and build organisations which enrich their community and safeguard the environment – building a more sustainable future for us all.
