Izola Bank also provides tailor-made financing solutions for SMEs and large companies in Malta and Belgium who are specifically looking for growth or to finance a particular project. This includes Izola Factor, commercial credit facilities, comprising of term-loans and overdrafts and tailor-made structures aimed at financing specific underlying needs of the business.

The Bank has also joined forces with two leading pan-European deposit platforms to offer personal deposits in a number of European countries, providing the Bank with a more diverse and liquid source of funding.

With over 30 years of successful operation, Izola Bank continuously invests in new technology to support the Bank’s evolving product lines and offer best in practice customer care. The Bank also adopts the necessary measures to ensure strong corporate governance and compliance with the latest EU legislation.

LET’S TALK GROWTH

Better Together

When people find themselves in a crisis, arising from situations like benefit delays, low income, homelessness, sickness, mental health or housing issues caused in part by rising rents, it can take some time for Care Professionals in Malta to find a long-term solution to help them.
 

Foodbank Lifeline Foundation helps these people in the short term by providing non-perishable food packs that can sustain an individual, couple or family for a period of one week, until a longer term solution can be found. 

From feeding just over 30 families during the summer of 2015, as of 2023 the Foodbank is feeding hundreds of families every single week, amounting to thousands of people every year, with operational costs running well into the tens of thousands every month.

Izola Bank shares Foodbank Lifeline's belief - that no child or adult should ever experience the indignity of hunger. This is why in 2019,  Izola Bank formalised their support of the Foodbank by becoming a joint main sponsor of the Foodbank along with The Alfred Mizzi Foundation. An agreement which is still going strong today. 

Aside from ongoing monetary donations, the Bank has also sponsored the development and management of all Foodbank Lifeline’s digital touch points, the production of ongoing operational material and the sponsorship of various fund-raising initiatives. Izola Bank is also the main sponsor of the annual Reverse Advent Calendar Campaign.

Izola Bank is proud to assist Foodbank Lifeline in its efforts to support people in desperate need.
