How to Find a Credit Union
Credit unions are community-based financial cooperatives that are owned and controlled by members who are also shareholders. A member of a credit union can deposit or withdraw the money from the credit union. A credit union is a profit sharing, financial co-operative run democratically by the members of the union itself.
By offering a more financially attractive alternative to the standard products offered by banks, the popularity of the credit union movement in the UK is increasing. A given credit union cannot lend all the money saved as loans to its members and cannot invest any residual money in any ventures above a certain level of risk. Hidden fees and transaction charges are non-existent with a credit union loan.
As a not for profit organization credit unions have a better tax structure than other institutions in the money markets. Many credit unions also pay 'bonus' dividends in especially good years.
