Community Focused, Financially Responsible
The Credit Union Movement
The Credit Union movement began with a simple idea—people helping people by pooling savings and lending to one another. In Dominica, it was inspired by the Roman Catholic Church, with Sister Alicia de Tremerie, a Belgium-born nun, recognized as the founder. Owned by their members, Credit Unions focus on service, care, and building stronger communities.
Who We Are
Like other Credit Unions worldwide, the Grand Bay Co-operative Credit Union Limited is membership owned. It started in 1983 as a saving union under the leadership of pioneers such as Bonti Liverpool, James Alexander, Maurice Elizee, Maria Jules, and others.
GBCCU began with 20 members and $200.00 worth of shares. It became a registered co-operative in 1986. GBCCU serves members from Grand Bay, Tete Morne, Dubique, Bagatelle, Petite Savanne, and others in the vicinity.
