Bank of Ireland and AA, the Automobile Association have just announced they’ve agreed to minimum 10-year financial partnership in the UK which will offer AA members financial services ranging from credit cards, unsecured loans, savings and mortgages.

AA has nearly four million members to whom it has offered financial services for more than twenty years.

Bank of Ireland UK already offers a range of financial services across Britain through a partnership link-up with the Post Office network there.

Des Crowley, Chief Executive BOI UK commented, "This new partnership with the AA is an important development for Bank of Ireland, building on the highly valued long term and successful financial services partnership which we have in the UK with the Post Office."

While Bob Mackenzie, Executive Chairman of AA noted, "This long term partnership forms a fundamental part of our growth strategy to transform the AA into a membership club serving a broader range of the UK motorists’ needs."
