GLS Bank, founded in 1974 and based in Bochum in North Rhine-Westphalia, operates as a German bank with a focus on sustainable finance. It functions as a universal bank offering a full suite of services for private and business customers, including savings accounts, checking, retirement planning, participations, and securities depots, all evaluated against explicit sustainability criteria. The bank directs its investments exclusively toward ecologically, socially, and economically forward-looking companies and projects, spanning regenerative energy, organic farming, educational facilities, the bioeconomy, and cooperative living and working arrangements for people with disabilities. This model links financial performance to deliberate environmental and social impact. The bank also emphasizes transparency by sharing loan allocations and its own investments through its customer publication and website, and it enables customers to participate in decisions about how their money is invested. In 2021, GLS Crowdfunding GmbH became an independent subsidiary as GLS Investments, reflecting an expansion of its sustainable investment offerings.
