Desjardins Financial Security Independent Network

At his home in Lévis, Quebec, Alphonse Desjardins (1854 - 1920) met with a small group of fellow citizens and presented his idea for a "people's bank." The goal was to provide financial services to working families. On December 6, 1900, they opened their doors for the first time. Today, Desjardins Group is the largest financial cooperative in Canada, ranked the second strongest financial institution in the world by Bloomberg (2014).
