The Benefits of Joining a Local Credit Union like Embarrass Vermillion FCU
Do you wish you could get more out of your savings or pay less on your loans? For many people in Minnesota, the search for a better financial partner has led them to a local credit union.
Credit unions are not-for-profit financial cooperatives, a model that operates very differently from traditional banks. Instead of serving a small group of stockholders, credit unions are owned by the people who use their services: their members. This core difference is what allows them to provide a unique and beneficial banking experience.
Embarrass Vermillion FCU has been helping our neighbors achieve their financial goals for decades. By choosing a local credit union, you’re not just opening an account; you’re becoming a member of a community.
Keeping More of Your Money Where It Belongs
Because credit unions are not driven by the need to generate a profit for shareholders, we can offer more competitive rates and lower fees. This is one of the most tangible benefits you’ll experience as a member of Embarrass Vermillion FCU.
Lower Loan Rates: Whether you’re financing a new car, a Home Mortgage, or a Personal Loan, our rates are often lower than those at big banks. This can save you thousands of dollars over the life of a loan.
Higher Savings Rates: Your hard-earned money should be working for you. Credit unions typically offer higher interest rates on Savings Accounts and Certificates of Deposit (CDs), helping your money grow faster.
Fewer and Lower Fees: At Embarrass Vermillion FCU, we work to minimize or eliminate these fees, so you can keep more of your own money.
