Helping all Queenslanders live better lives through better finances.

About us

Put simply, we are a bank and we have a distinct purpose to help all Queenslanders live better lives through better finances. As a member-owned organisation, returning profits to our Members and their communities is important to us. We are devoted to ensuring that we are constantly doing more for our Members by providing banking products and services that matter. We're proud to offer a strong alternative to the big banks. We're regulated by the very same authority as the major banks, and offer the same government guarantee to secure your deposits. Most of the savings deposited with the credit union are loaned back to customers and our diverse asset base provides our strength and security. Community development and personal growth matter to us, which is why we contribute to the communities we live in through our sponsorships program, partnering with community groups to help in raising funds and our Community Grants Scheme. We were born in Mount Isa in 1971 as the Isa Mine Employees' Credit Union Limited, but over the years we've grown through our desire to help all Queenslanders with their banking and lending needs.

    We've been operating in regional Queensland for more than 50 years. Recently we had an opportunity share our valued history in Cairns with leaders of the Cairns business community. As a Member owned bank, providing quality banking services to people and businesses within regions like Cairns remains an important focus of ours. It's important to us that we engage with and learn from local community members. Thank you to all who attended, including representatives of the Cairns Taipans, Cairns Regional Council, Advance Cairns, Tourism Tropical North Queensland, Cairns Chamber of Commerce, to name a few. We look forward to continuing our involvement with local people and businesses in Cairns. Photographed: Queensland Country Bank Directors - Lewis Ramsay, Karen Read FCPA GAICD MAMI, Greg Nucifora.

    Meals from the Heart 💛 Ronald McDonald House Charities South East Queensland (RMHC SEQ). We recently participated in a volunteering opportunity, preparing meals for families with ill and injured children staying at Ronald McDonald House, South Brisbane. The incredible services provided by RMHC SEQ are supported by a passionate volunteer workforce who aim to make a positive difference in the lives of families facing very challenging times. We support and encourage our staff to participate in volunteering opportunities with not-for-profit organisations and give back to our communities through our Community Volunteer Program. Thank you to Chari from Ronald McDonald House Charities South East Queensland for hosting us (and providing culinary guidance), to the Brisbane Heat staff and to our insurance partner for joining us. #QueenslandCountryBank #ronaldmcdonaldhousecharities #rmhcseq
