The benefits of belonging to a credit union

-

FINANCE IS serious business. The credit union knows that money controls opportunit­ies. Your opportunit­y to an education, to owning a house, to going on vacation, to paying your bills, to getting that job, to having children and many more opportunit­ies come with a price point. That is why credit unions design products to cover their members from birth through to every stage of life.

Credit unions are the guides that make your life-fulfilling decisions easier. A few of the credit union suites of products include:

- Youth Savings Accounts

-Line of Credit

-Partner Savings Plans

-Insurance

-Debit MasterCard

-Family Indemnity plan

-Education Loans

-Mortgage

-Car loans

-Micro & Small Business Loans

-Scholarshi­p & Grants

-Debit Consolidat­ion

-Pay Advance Loans

-Fixed Deposit Savings -Vacation Loans

AND MUCH MORE!

On average, credit unions also have competitiv­e interest rates, ensuring that members get the most from their hard-earned money.

Credit unions value their members’ perspectiv­es and ensure that they play an integral part in deciding the governance and strategic direction of the institutio­n. Members of a credit union enjoy specific advantages such as

· Voting on decisions directing the usage of surplus, rules, and board candidates at general annual meetings.

· 100 per cent saving and loans protection. · Beneficiar­ies can benefit from up to 200 per cent of a member’s savings upon death.

· A credit union member shares in any annual surplus because he/she is a part owner.

· Each member has equal voting power (one vote), the same as all other members in the credit union irrespecti­ve of the amount of his/ her savings, deposits, or volume of business.

· A credit union member is a co-owner of the credit union.
