Caixa de Crédito Agrícola Mútuo de Leiria is a credit cooperative founded on 3rd January 1915 and its area of operation covers the municipalities of Leiria, Marinha Grande and Ourém.
Caixa de Crédito de Leiria is a financial institution that provides banking services and is characterised by its cooperation with social and cultural activities developed in the communities of its area of operation. The commitment to share and practise moral and social values is part of Caixa de Crédito de Leiria's history and this is the way to define the image that identifies us.
Our most remote origins can be found in the ancient experiences of the 16th century Common Barns and, more recently, in the credit cooperatives of the last century. Thus, yesterday as today, farmers sought to overcome the difficult conditions of life and activity. They sought to set themselves up as credit intermediary institutions for their members, organising common guarantees and facilitating access to sources of finance.
