What are Credit Union Operating Principles?
Credit Unions are unique, are unlike every other financial institution in their purpose, their governing rules, and the service they provide. Key differences include:
- Credit Unions do not and cannot (by law) speculate with members’ money.
- Credit Unions do not want, and cannot have, big deposits.
- Credit Unions can only lend for provident and productive purposes.
- Credit Unions only lend to their members, who must be saving regularly to be eligible for a loan.
- The savings and loans of our credit union members are insured (up to generous limits) at no extra cost to the individual member.
