What is a Credit Union?

Credit Unions are financial co-operatives that are owned and controlled by the people who use them (their members) and who all share a common bond.

Credit Unions exist to provide safe, competitive and fair financial services to their members. Unlike many other financial institutions, Credit Unions focus on the financial well-being of their members, rather than to simply make a profit.

 

  • Members have a voice

    As a member owned organisation members have a direct say in the development and direction of the organisation.

  • Opinions are valued

    As a member focused organisation, members are treated as individuals never numbers.

  • Benefit from saving

    As a mutual organisation, any surplus funds are returned to the members in the form of dividend on savings, competitive rates on loans and new and improved services.

  • It's because we care

    Providing the highest level of service is key to our continued success. No hidden charges or catches exist and a personal and friendly service is guaranteed.
