There\u2019s one thing everyone knows about big banks: they are for-profit businesses, and they profit quite a bit. However, if you\u2019re concerned about your money and how it\u2019s handled by your financial institution, why not consider switching to a credit union?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Members of Polam FCU get all the benefits of managing their money with a not-for-profit financial institution. It\u2019s one of the most positive benefits of being a member of a credit union – you don\u2019t have to worry about fat cat CEOs who focus more on profits than taking care of their customers. Here are just a few reasons why switching to a credit union is a great choice for your financial future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of the best reasons to become a member of a credit union is the fact that you\u2019re not a customer, you\u2019re a member with the financial institution. Members are the driving force that influence every element in their credit union.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Do you feel like your financial institution treats you like just another cog in the banking system? Well, you don\u2019t have to worry about that with many credit unions. Polam FCU caters to the Polish community in Northern California and New Britain, CT. There are also credit unions that specialize in catering to professions like active duty military, engineers, people in the medical industry, and educators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Credit unions are technically not banks by definition. However, that doesn\u2019t mean your money isn\u2019t safe with us. The National Credit Union Association (NCUA) regulates all federally insured credit unions, and you can even look up your credit union\u2019s financial health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One thing to always consider is for whom your financial institution is actually working. However, with credit unions, we\u2019ve always got your best interest in mind, and Polam members are always trying to make our credit union better for all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
