Our History

In 1968, members of the Civil Service Association Trade Union (which represented the majority of civil servants in Barbados) made an application and were granted permission to form a Savings Society. By 1969 the objective of the executive of this Society was to have it registered as a Credit Union. On May 6th, 1970 the Barbados Civil Service Association Credit Union Limited (as we were then known) was registered.

In 1977, in order to broaden its bond of membership, the name was changed to Barbados Public Workers' Co-operative Credit Union Limited (BPWCCUL). This bond would now allow the inclusion of former civil servants, staff of statutory boards, husbands, wives and children of members as well as employees of the National Union of Public Workers.

Today membership in Barbados Public Workers' Co-operative Credit Union is open to all Barbadians, resident and non-resident.

In an unprecedented move in 2010 the Credit Union acquired a Mortgage and Finance Company; Capita Financial Services Inc. as it is now known operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the BPWCCUL with offices in Barbados and St. Lucia.
