What makes credit unions work – the 5 “P”s

  • People – to start it
  • People – to join as owner-members
  • People – to help run it in a variety of unpaid voluntary roles
  • People – to manage it on a day to day basis “24/7 – 365”
  • People – to take the ultimate legal and custodial responsibility for it

What’s in it for the owner-members?

Secure low risk savings; a source of loans with clear and fair conditions and regulated repayment terms; being part of a community enterprise where every owner-member is an equal owner of it!
