Control of our credit union and its management is in the hands of our members. Once a year our members elect a Board of Directors at the annual meeting. Each member gets one vote, regardless of the number of shares they own. One person, one vote means control and direction of the credit union, not based on the financial resources of a few members, but on the needs of the entire membership.
Unlike for-profit banks, credit unions are governed by members just like you - people in our community who are committed to creating lasting relationships that make a difference in your financial lives.These members serve as unpaid volunteers. The welfare of their fellow members and the sound operation of the credit union is their driving focus.
Please feel free to share your ideas, comments, and suggestions with your board of directors. Email your Board of Directors at board@uiecu.org.
