Equity Shares

Equity Shares

Equity Shares represent equity in your Credit Union and form part of your own personal wealth. These funds are yours, they appear on your regular statement, and are refundable upon membership cancellation.

Credit Union members are both customers and shareholders. As a customer, you receive the services you want and as a shareholder you enjoy a competitive dividend return on your $5 investment, nominal costs for premium services, and local control of your own financial institution.

There is a voluntary Board of Directors that you elect at the Annual General Meeting.
