1971 - Current
Queensland Country Bank began supporting hardworking regional Queenslanders as the Isa Mine Employees’ Credit Union in 1971. It grew out of a community call to support the basic banking and small lending needs of employees of Mount Isa Mines Limited and related companies within the MIM umbrella, such as MIM Holdings, Carpentaria Exploration Company, Copper Refineries, Collinsville Coal Company and Townsville Transport Services (TTS). It changed its name to North Queensland Credit Union in 1984 and to Queensland Country Credit Union in 1989. It has a strong presence in North Queensland in particular and its mergers in 2017 with ECU and in 2018 with Queenslanders Credit Union cemented this position. It became Queensland Country Bank in 2020.

Our Queensland Country Bank holdings include annual reports from 1972 onwards, Credit where it's due: a history of the Queensland Country Credit Union Ltd 1971-1992, newsletters, photographs and contemporary governance documents and reports published online.
