What exactly is a Credit Union? This question is commonly asked. Let me share some insights. 😊 ✒️ Credit unions are financial cooperatives owned by their members, operating on a non-profit basis, which sets them apart from banks. Profits are reinvested back into members through educational programs, affordable fees, competitive loan rates, and attractive savings opportunities. ❣ ✒️ Credit unions also benefit business owners by offering a diverse range of financial products and services. By managing their finances locally, business owners support community growth and sustainability. 💫 ✒️ Credit unions provide tools such as budgeting aids and business plans to help their members effectively manage finances. Compared to larger banks, credit unions often have more flexible lending criteria. ✒️ Additionally, credit unions are deeply ingrained in local communities, actively supporting initiatives and focusing on member financial wellness.
