This year, we celebrate 76 years of International Credit Union Day under the theme “One World Through Cooperative Finance”. It speaks to how credit unions and other community-based financial cooperatives are still bringing people together in these divided times to grow financial inclusion and well-being for all.
Every year, in the last few months, there’s an increase in financial scams. Scammers take advantage of the busy shopping season and the spirit of giving to catch people off guard.

We are delighted to let our savers know that we will be paying interest payments into members’ share accounts this week.
