The following is a survey to gauge the level of interest in this credit union. The credit union does not yet exist and much work still needs to be done as efforts are still in a preliminary stage. In particular a feasibility study needs to be carried out, business plan written, etc. . .
Worker Coops
If you are a worker cooperative or association that supports the development of worker cooperatives and are interested in becoming part of the common bond of this Worker Cooperative Credit Union please contact Mike Leung at participatory.credit.union@gmail.com. Being part of the common bond will allow members of your cooperative (and their family members) to join this credit union.
Coops can help by filling out a short online survey that will help us determine the feasibility.
Individuals
If you would like to receive updates about progress on the credit union please subscribe to our announcements list by sending an email to: workercoopfcu-announcements-subscribe@npogroups.org
If you are an individual who is interested in become a member of the Worker Cooperative Credit Union please read the following fill out the survey below.
The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) requires that 3000 people pledge to become members of a new credit union for the chartering process. The NCUA also insures savings up to $100,000 through the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (analogous to the FDIC). Members are people who deposit money at the credit union and are eligible for loans. While the intent is for this to eventually be a full service credit union with standard banking services, most new credit unions initially offer limited services (only savings accounts and personal loans). If you are interested in pledging to become a member, please fill out this form and email it to Michael Leung at participatory.credit.union@gmail.com. Pledges are non-binding.
