The capital of Aragon is gaining prominence within the company’s plan
CBNK is betting on Aragon This is embodied in the reopening of its office in Joaquín Costa, a space considered the backbone of its regional activity. The entity, which has more than thirty years of activity in the region, wants to promote a specialized banking model linked to engineers, health professionals and companies operating in strategic sectors.
The move comes at a time when specialty banking is gaining ground over larger public entities. CBNK emphasizes that its institutional structure, inherited from a cooperative system and based on the direct participation of the professionals themselves, allows a more stable relationship in line with the interests of its clients.
A renewed presence to attract new professional profiles
The Zaragoza office is designed to be an open, accessible environment geared toward specialty care. The 200 square meter space includes in-house care and extended hours that allow the integration of hybrid interaction models: digital when it facilitates management, and in-person when it provides value.
Currently, the bank manages a volume of approximately EUR 100 million in the city and approximately EUR 40 million of client resources distributed between liabilities and off-balance sheet assets. With nearly 600 active customers, the entity wants to achieve a quantum leap in a period of three to four years.
The strategic element that transforms the CBNK project
From there, the entity begins to explain the change that guides its roadmap. The physical renovation of the headquarters in Zaragoza is only the surface of a deeper transformation: New strategic betting Which redirects the future of the bank in Aragon.
According to the administration, the entity is leaving behind a center that focuses solely on civil engineers and pharmacists to expand it to include all engineering and health sciences. This expansion of groups allows us to enhance brand influence in sectors where there is high demand for specialist financial advice.
Unique ownership model to sustain growth
The BOK sees the shareholder structure, inherited from the Caminos and Bancofar cooperative members, as still one of its distinctive elements. Professionals associated with these areas make up the owners of the bank, providing stability and long-term commitment. This connection, depending on the entity, generates a closeness that is difficult to find in more traditional models.
The Bank does not seek to replicate the dynamics of large entities, but rather seeks to foster a specialization space that prioritizes what it wants to do and what it explicitly prefers not to address. This clarity in its boundaries and areas of work, according to management, is essential for sustainable growth without exposure to undue risks.
Aragon as a region of sustainable growth
The independent community has become a strategic area thanks to the existence of ecosystems that match the professional profile that CBNK addresses. Logistics, health, energy and engineering generate a concentration of companies and projects that require financial products adjusted to technical needs.
The bank wants to strengthen its participation in these sectors through alliances with professional associations, groups and companies located in the region. For the administration, Zaragoza is a “key place” that combines expectations, economic activity and traditions linked to artistic and health profiles.
The product presentation adapts to each group
In terms of savings and liquidity, the BOK has emerged to offer competitive solutions, especially in the context of price volatility. Their salary accounts and pooled deposits range from 2% to 2.5%, while savings alternatives for the self-employed include tax benefits tailored to specific professional profiles.
In the mortgage space, the facility avoids engaging in aggressive price-based strategies, with the exception of its pharmacy portfolio, where its knowledge of the sector allows it to design financing adapted to business models with their own regulatory characteristics.
Comprehensive catalog for professionals
CBNK integrates investment, social security and insurance services through its business units: CBNK Asset Management, CBNK Pensions and CBNK Insurance Mediation. Added to this are private banking services and a business offer that focuses on working capital, productive investment and project structures for companies with a technical profile.
The bank plans to expand the number of employees in the Zaragoza office if growth continues, and enhance its ability to serve segments of individuals, companies and professional groups. The entity confirms that this enhancement will allow for more specialized support and greater flexibility in operations.
Regional expansion, a process already underway
The launch of the new format in Zaragoza comes as an addition to a broader operation that has already reached Malaga, Real Ciudad, Valencia, Palma and Barcelona. Every opening or renovation follows the same pattern: accessible spaces, dedicated managers, and a unified corporate image.
Through this roadmap, the new office becomes the operational base through which the BOK wants to showcase its development in a society in a state of complete economic turmoil.
Aragon once again places itself at the center of expansion
