The Bank has a very humble inspiring beginning. On
7th, November 1963, "The Goa State Co-operative Bank
Ltd" was founded as Apex financing agency in the
co-operative sectors in the then Union territory of Goa, Daman
and Diu with Shri. S. Khushaldas as its first Chairman.
The first Chairman and the Board were the
people with deep and abiding ideals, faith, vision, optimism
and entrepreneurial skills. These dedicated men in-charge
of the Society had a commendable sense of service and duty
imbibed in them. Even today, our honorable founders inspire
a sense of awe and respect in the Bank and amongst the shareholders.
The Bank was initially set up to help the
members in distress. Its objective was to provide finance
to the needy members in the then Union territory of Goa, Daman
& Diu and bring up their financial standards. The Bank provides
more interest on deposits and loans to agriculture and allied
activities. The Bank also provides all types of loan schemes
like Urban loans, Consumer loans, loan against gold, loan
against NSC, Loan against Pigmy, Non-agricultural loan, Weddings
of dependent members of the family, loan for Repayment of
debt and to meet expenses of medical treatment etc. to suit
the dreams and desire of the members.
During this cataclysmic cavalcade of history,
the Bank as a financial institution and its members could
not of course remain unaffected by the economic consequences
of the major events. The Founder Members and the later-day
managements of the Bank continued to demonstrate their unwavering
faith in the destiny of the common man and the co-operative
movement and they encouraged the shareholders to save despite
all odds.
