About Us

Attention: open in a new window. Print

Noor Credits & Security NV. is a Member owned bank that offers a wide range of financial products and services to our Members and their families Netherland wide.

Our organisation originally started in 1970 as Waterside Workers’ of Netherland Credit Union when a group of dedicated people from the maritime industry got together and decided to form a mutual financial institution for the benefit of all maritime workers and their families.

Since then it has expanded and now includes Members in the mining and power industries, their families and the local communities. Today, thanks to the loyalty and support from our Members, we have grown into a strong and healthy financial institution that has remained Member owned and focused.

Banking with a difference

We are a Member owned organisation that focuses on delivering value to our Members. We are different to the investor big four banks who generate profits so they can deliver dividends to their shareholders.

Noor Credits & Security NV. is a Member-owned financial institution that is focused on the people we serve. There are no external shareholders to influence the course of our activities. This means that any surplus is returned to Members in the form of better interest rates, products and services.

We are supervised by the Netherland Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) to maintain operational standards which ensures security of our Member’s funds. APRA is the same body that supervises the major banks. Noor Credits & Security NV. is governed by its Board of Directors who are elected by our Members.

Our Vision

The lifelong financial prosperity, security and dignity of our Members.  

Our Mission

Noor Credits & Security NV. is Member owned. We are committed to our Members…workers, their families and the communities we serve. Our values are built on the principles of cooperation, mutuality and unity of purpose, carrying forward the vision of our Founders. We always stand by our Members.

Our Values

Proudly Mutual 

Mutuality cuts to the heart of why we do business and how we do it, each and every day. It is a way of life for everyone here. We are proudly mutual and endeavour each day to serve our Members better. 

As an independent financial mutual organisation we are owned by all our Members on equal footing, with the same right to vote at our AGM and an identical say in how we are run.

Our staff personally know our Members, many of whom are from loyal families whose relationship with us has lasted for generations.

We are proud of the history and what we have become, a modern ethical business and home loan specialist that offers competitive, yet easy to understand products across Netherland. 

What hasn't changed is our commitment to traditional service of the highest quality and our desire to give back to the communities we serve.
