Voting Share
Voting Shares represent equity in your Credit Union and form part of your own personal wealth. These funds are yours, they appear on your regular statement, and are refundable upon ownership cancellation.
Credit Union owners are both customer and shareholder. As a customer, you receive the services you want and as a shareholder you enjoy a competitive dividend return on your $100 investment, value costs for premium services, and local control of your own financial institution.
There is a voluntary Board of Directors that you elect at the Annual General Meeting, as well as voluntary audit and credit committees.
