My bet: the founder is really just another "dirty capitalist" taking advantage of a marketing opportunity to a somewhat gullible group (man-hating feminists).

Wow, a bank that offers it's customers a choice of the 'envelope system' or the 'cookie jar system' of sophisticated money management.

She will get a lot of female Muslim costumers. After all, in Arab almost everything are separated between men and women.

So let's have male only banking so men don't have to deal with man-hating feminazis and watch the stuff hit the fan. Male oppression and all.... Excuse me while I go puke...

Has the title been changed? When I first read it, it said:

German women offered man-free banging

A Manbank certainly would be.

"Here Mr. Smith- or can I call you Smitty- have a beer. Put your feet up on my desk- I do it all the time. You need a loan. New monster truck? 72" plasma TV? What'll it be?"

Unlike America, which has thousands of female bank managers, (in fact I don't even know if I've ever had a male bank manager) europe is woefully behind in this area. I know the left would be surprised by this.
Of course it may be changing now because of the EU laws, but even five years ago you could find adverts in the paper for jobs open only to women under age 30, or no pension aged people need apply etc.
