THE Somerset Savings and Loans credit union has reported an increase in the number of inquiries being made by small- to medium- sized businesses looking to borrow from ethical banking sources.
Credit union general manager Jackie Simpson said: “Companies which have traditionally dealt with some of the well-known high street banks are beginning to look elsewhere following highly publicised changes in the management structures and ethos of some of our leading brands.”
