We’re
a full-service, not-for-profit, financial cooperative providing
competitive consumer banking and financial services to our
member-owners. Unlike a bank, we don’t have outside stockholders
to enrich. Instead, we share our surplus earnings with our
member-owners in the form of better pricing, lower fees and
better service.
Yes!
Although we provide consumer banking and financial services
that are similar to banks, that’s where the similarities end.
EECU is much different from a bank because our People Helping
People philosophy, rather than the need to make a profit,
drives every decision we make about rates, fees, services
and our involvement in the community. How many banks can
make this statement? None!
Absolutely!
Your deposits are federally insured up to $100,000 by NCUA,
a U.S. government agency. Plus, your member-elected Board
of Directors and appointed committee members work with EECU
management to ensure established policies, procedures and
safeguards are followed, to ensure the safety of your money.
Back
in 1957, ordinary people had few choices where to put their
hard earned money. Since banks catered mostly to the affluent class, many everyday
people endured poor service and high bank fees. But then,
an innovative group of folks fed up with banks and the absence
of consumer financial choice had a revolutionary idea: to
go bankless and start a credit union!
On
October 30, 1957, EECU was founded to serve employees of certain
Missouri school districts. Over the years, we’ve expanded
and now serve over 60,000 members from all walks of life.
Today, EECU is recognized as one of the strongest credit unions
in the country.
EECU
is a unique financial institution. It’s a place where you
receive superior service and value. It’s also a place where
you’re more than just a customer…you’re a member-owner. We
