Historical Results Lead Credicom to R$ 224 Million in Surplus and Nearly R$ 10 Billion in Financial Assets.
Credicom, the largest financial cooperative in Minas Gerais, recorded in 2025 the best performance in its history, reaching R$ 224.2 million in surplus — equivalent to profit at banks — a 22.6% growth compared to the previous year.
The result was driven by the expansion of cooperative credit operations, an increase in the number of members, and strengthening its presence in the health sector.
As a result, the institution closed the period with R$ 9.68 billion in financial assets, consolidating its prominent position in the country.

The historic performance was achieved throughout 2025, with a strong presence in Minas Gerais and operations in other states such as São Paulo, Bahia, and Pará.
The growth reflects a strategy based on financial guidance, relationships with members, and a diverse range of services.
Moreover, the cooperative model, which distributes results among members, explains the advancement of record surpluses.
Credicom Achieves Record Surpluses and Grows in Cooperative Credit
The significant result of Credicom is directly linked to the expansion of cooperative credit.
In 2025, credit operations grew by 15%, totaling R$ 5.02 billion, focusing mainly on consumption and investments.
Additionally, the member base has also advanced significantly.
Currently, the institution has around 133,000 members, a number 16% higher than previously recorded.
This growth reinforces trust in the financial cooperative model, which offers more accessible conditions and participation in results.
Another important factor is the concept of “surpluses,” typical of cooperativism.
Unlike traditional banks, where profit goes to shareholders, at Credicom these values return to the members, increasing engagement and loyalty.
Credicom’s Financial Assets Approach R$ 10 Billion
With the expansion of operations, Credicom’s financial assets reached R$ 9.68 billion, consolidating the institution’s solidity in the market.
This volume represents not only growth but also greater capacity to offer credit and services.
According to the cooperative’s president, João Augusto Oliveira Fernandes, the result is the fruit of continuous work.
“This result was not generated overnight; it was a construction. Members from the health sector formed this great partnership.
We must not forget that the biggest asset the cooperative has is investing in its employees,” he said.
This statement reinforces the importance of human capital and specialization in the health segment, which differentiates the institution’s operation.
Financial Consulting Boosts the Cooperative’s Differential
One of Credicom’s main differentiators is its role as a financial consultant, going beyond the traditional role of a financial cooperative.
The institution analyzes the member’s profile before granting credit, seeking financial sustainability.
“We are almost like a consultant. We pay close attention to our member’s profile.
Sometimes we even deny credit, guiding that the desired funds may not pay off in the future. We work with all that guidance,” explained Fernandes.
This approach allows approving projects that are often declined by traditional banks, especially due to expertise in the health sector.
National Expansion and Growth Strategy of Credicom
With a growth of about 23% compared to 2024, Credicom maintains a strategy of continuous expansion.
Currently, there are 57 service points distributed across different Brazilian states.
Thus, the cooperative is already planning to expand to Curitiba (PR), awaiting authorization from the Central Bank. However, opening new physical branches is not a priority.
Expansion should primarily occur through the incorporation of other cooperatives and the enhancement of digital services.
Additionally, the institution seeks to diversify its operations across different sectors of the economy, maintaining a focus on sustainable growth.
Comprehensive Portfolio Strengthens Cooperative Credit
Credicom offers a wide range of financial products and services.
These include personal, business, and rural credit, as well as investments, insurance, pensions, consortia, and payment solutions.
Another relevant differentiator is the financial return to members.
Unlike traditional banks, the invested capital is remunerated based on the full Selic rate, through the capital account.
Additionally, there is an annual distribution of surpluses, which enhances the model’s attractiveness.
“The more services and products contracted, the greater the relationship with the institution and the amount received when the distribution of results occurs,” highlighted the president.
Cooperative Model Strengthens Credicom’s Growth
The performance of Credicom demonstrates the strength of financial cooperativism in Brazil.
By combining competitive rates, participation in results, and consultative service, the institution enhances its relevance in the market.
Therefore, the growth of record surpluses and financial assets evidences not only operational efficiency but also a sustainable model.
The trend, therefore, is for continuous expansion, keeping pace with the demand for cooperative credit and more accessible financial solutions.
