THE CREDIT UNION DIFFERENCE

Credit unions are not-for-profit, member-owned financial cooperatives that exist solely to serve their members.

Unlike a bank, credit unions are governed by their members. The credit union membership elects a Board of Directors to represent it in policy-making decisions.

Credit unions can usually offer better rates and lower fees on almost everything from car loans to credit cards because they do not focus on making profits and paying stockholders. Instead, they can use earnings to lower loan rates, raise savings rates, and reduce fees.

All credit unions share a similar philosophy: people helping people. They pride themselves on helping and serving their members not just as a financial institution, but through financial education and community and charitable causes.
