We’ve reimagined everyday banking with an account that combines the benefits of chequing and savings, and high interest GICs you can purchase with the touch of a button. EQ Bank is brought to you by Equitable Bank, a federally regulated Schedule I Bank with over 750 employees and total assets under management of approximately $31 billion. For nearly 50 years, brokers across the country have been helping Canadians realize and reach their financial goals through Equitable Bank products such as mortgages, home equity lines of credit and a variety of deposit services. Equitable Bank was founded in 1970 as The Equitable Trust Company. It is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Equitable Group Inc., whose common and preferred shares are traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange.
