Desjardins has come a long way from its origins in a small Quebec town. Now with $460 billion in assets and 7.8 million members, it's North America’s largest financial co-op. “For us, social impact isn’t an option, it’s a responsibility,” says Guy Cormier, President and CEO of Desjardins Group. “It’s a deeply rooted belief that has been in our DNA for 125 years.” For more than a century, Desjardins’ people-first mission remains the same. Here’s how the cooperative is shaping a more equitable, innovative and sustainable financial future—for everyone. |
