Who We Are

As a community-based and democratically governed, financial co-operative, Northern Savings is committed to improving the financial health of more than 17,000 member-owners.

Our four locations: Masset, Prince Rupert, Daajing Giids (Queen Charlotte), and Terrace, are situated on the traditional unceded lands of the Haida people and the traditional territories of the Tsimshian Nation. Northern Savings is committed to taking real action in our journey to Reconciliation and have implemented the Calls to Action for Business as outlined by the Truth & Reconciliation Commission.

Northern Savings’ team of close to 150 Northerners, provides personal and business financial services, insurance, investing and financial planning solutions.

Since 1940, we have offered exceptional service and practical advice demonstrated through honesty, integrity, and ethical behaviour. We are simply neighbours helping neighbours to achieve financial wellness.
