What is a Credit Union?

Northwest Christian Credit Union is a financial institution, similar to a bank. But there are some important differences between a bank and a credit union.

Members

Banks accept any customers from the public. Credit unions are formed to serve a specific group of people that become members. A bank is owned by its shareholders (not necessarily customers of the bank). A credit union is owned by its members. At NCCU, we work hard to unite the faith and finance of the people, businesses and ministries who are our members.

Profits

Banks are run as a “for profit” enterprise. Profits are distributed to stockholder dividends and increased shareholder values. Any extra money earned by a credit union, in excess of its operational expenses, is returned to its members through better rates and lower fees. At NCCU, our leadership board is committed to honor God and our member's best interests when managing the resources of the credit union.

Community-minded

Most banks are part of a larger organization that doesn't have the same focus on the local community like a credit union would. At NCCU, we invest and are involved in a variety of partnerships and sponsorships that support a vibrant, faith community.
