Strømmen Sparebank

What Strømmen Sparebank does

Strømmen Sparebank is a Norwegian mutual savings bank (sparebank) founded in 1921 and headquartered in Strømmen, operating a single physical branch supported by mobile banking, netbank, phone, and Microsoft Teams video channels. It serves private individuals and households in its local catchment area, with a secondary exposure to small businesses. The bank is a member of the Eika Alliansen, a strategic alliance of 47 Norwegian local savings banks that share IT infrastructure, product development, and back-office capabilities.

The product portfolio spans retail banking (deposit accounts, savings, BSU, credit cards), consumer lending (mortgages, car loans, consumer loans, senior loans, refinancing), insurance distribution underwritten by Fremtind Forsikring (home, contents, travel, vehicle, pet, life, accident, disability, critical illness, health, children's), investment and pension funds, and—newly added—legal services (future power of attorney, wills, cohabitation agreements) via partner Justify. Ancillary service partners include SOS International for travel emergencies, FirstVet for pet insurance, and Dr.Dropin for health.

As a mutual savings bank, Strømmen Sparebank has no shareholders; it is owned by its depositors and the community. Revenue is generated through net interest income on the lending book, fees on banking and payment services, commissions from insurance distribution, and fund/pension management fees. In 2025, the bank was awarded Best Customer Service in Norway by KSIndeks and Best in Test for Personal Insurance by bytt.no.
