Bank Overview

The Coop. movement is the backbone of rural economic development of India. The movement struck roots in Maharashtra in the first decade of the century and later blossomed. The conviction inspired by this plain principles materialised as early as 1912 in the shape of a new enterprise now familiar with all as "THE PANDHARPUR URBAN CO-OP. BANK LTD.'. As usual initially the pace of progress was slow but steady, the area of activity was limited and the monetary base was much less than the need. Since independence the bank with its schemes and clientele, capacity and capability for cooperation gathered both mass and momentum. Ours are the pioneering efforts in this filed in Solapur District. A small seed from the movement, has grown up into a banyan tree.
