The Volksbank Neckartal eG is a German cooperative bank headquartered in Eberbach.
History
In 1865 a small circle of liberal thinking Eberbacher citizens who were connected to the idea of self-help founded the Vorschussverein Eberbach (advance association)[3] based on the model of the co-operative founding fathers Friedrich Wilhelm Raiffeisen and Franz Hermann Schulze-Delitzsch.[4] Three years later, the Vorschussverein Neckargemünd was founded. Both advance associations are predecessor institutions of today's Volksbank Neckartal.
In 2001, Volksbank Eberbach-Hessisches Neckartal merged with Volksbank Neckargemünd-Meckesheim, which emerged from the merger of Volksbank Neckargemünd and Volksbank Meckesheim in 1998, to form Volksbank Neckartal.[3][5] In 2009, the merger took place between Volksbank Neckartal and Volksbank Schwarzbachtal.
