Aegis grew from a staff association established in 1971 to a trade union, gaining independent status in 2008. Our strategy is to grow carefully within the finance sector.

In 2014 we expanded our membership out with Aegon by bringing the finance sector unions that represented staff in HML, Skipton and Yorkshire Building Societies under the Aegis umbrella.

Through our involvement with lobbying groups like the Alliance for Finance, TUC, STU and The GFTU, we have access to the bodies that shape and regulate our sector. 

Through regular meetings with organisations like the FCA , ABI, Scottish Parliament and Westminster, we are able to influence the thinking at the highest level on issues that affect workers and employers throughout the Finance Sector.

  • We help you get the rewards, respect and recognition at work that you deserve.
  • We offer support, representation and legal advice, and negotiate pay and conditions.
  • Membership costs £8.00 a month.
