Community Participation Overview


One of the pillars driving the Ubank business strategy is community development. Investing in the communities in which we operate, forms a critical part of how we do business hence the Bank’s commitment to allocate 4% of the pre-tax profits to CSI programmes annually.

Driven by the social objective of improving the quality of their community’s lives, Ubank’s CSI focus is on empowering its communities through investment in sustainable educational programmes. As a wholly owned trust, Ubank has a unique ownership structure that jointly managed by the National Union of Mineworkers and the Chamber of Mines (NUM).

The nature of the business ensures that community development and participation remains at the core of how Ubank conducts its business. This is to ensure that continuous and sustainable investments are made that benefit our customers and the communities where we operate.


This is achieved through the following CSI programmes:

• Ubank Schools Development Programme
• Khulanathi Ubank’s Employee Volunteerism Programme
   (Xhosa phrase meaning ‘grow with us’)
• Financial Literacy Programme
• Ubank Bursary Programme
• Teach Children to Save Campaign South Africa (TCTS SA™)
