Much interest is being generated by the ‘Move Your Money’ campaigning
group (www.moveyourmoney.org.uk)
to influence individuals
as well as public sector banking choices
‘Move Your Money
UK’ launched in February 2012 in order to help transform widespread public
anger with the big banks into active support for ethical and mutual banking
sector in the UK. The Move Your Money campaign is now seeking to
encourage institutions to move their money out of the four largest high
street banks, with a focus on the role of local authorities. A local campaign
and petition is active (http://www.change.org/en-GB/petitions/lambeth-council-move-your-money-moveyourmoney) and ‘MYM’ representatives have recently
contributed to discussions held at Finance Scrutiny Sub Committee on the future
of Lambeth Council’s banking services.
