About Aria Savings
Aria Savings is the Persian‑focused, Farsi‑speaking division of Community Savings Credit Union one of British Columbia’s longest‑standing credit unions with more than 80 years of service to members. It is regulated by the BC Financial Services Authority, a Crown agency of the Government of British Columbia.
Community Savings is 100% Canadian and member-owned. Unlike big banks, we reinvest our profits into local communities – not corporate shareholders. Eligible deposits are 100% guaranteed by the Credit Union Deposit Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (CUDIC).
For over 80 years, Community Savings has stood up for working people and businesses by prioritizing Canadian-made products and services. Aria Savings builds on that history by offering financial services in Farsi and creating a welcoming space for Canada’s Persian‑speaking community.
