A credit union is the best place to get financial services for several reasons:

  • A credit union is a cooperative and exists only to benefit its members. A credit union won’t merge with a larger institution unless the members voted in favor of that action.
  • As a credit union member, you’re an owner – not just a customer.
  • A volunteer board of directors, elected by the membership, directs the credit union. The board’s only interest is ensuring that the credit union operates in a way that benefits its members.
  • A credit union doesn’t have outside stockholders to take profits from the financial institution. A credit union distributes its profits to the members in the following ways:
    - In the form of lower rates for loans and higher rates for deposits
    - In the form of retained capital to ensure members receive the products and services they want and the credit union remains a strong financial institution
