What’s the difference between credit unions and banks?
- Credit unions are not-for-profit, cooperative financial institutions that exist to serve the financial needs of their members.
- When you join a credit union, you not only become a member, you become an owner.
- Members' deposits are used to fund other members' loans, and earnings are used to reduce loan rates and to improve service for everyone.
- Each member has a voice in selecting the Board of Directors, and members' suggestions and ideas are always welcome.
- Banks are for-profit and they serve customers.
- Bank profits are turned over to shareholders; the bottom line is money.
