Credit Union
A cooperative financial institution that is owned and controlled by its members, who are also its customers.
More Details
A credit union is a type of financial institution that is owned and controlled by its members, who are also its customers. Credit unions are typically not-for-profit organizations that are run for the benefit of their members, rather than for the benefit of shareholders.
Example
If you prefer a member-owned cooperative instead of a traditional bank, you may seek out a credit union—such as MCU—as your next financial home.
