Who We Are?
Working hard To Meet Your Needs |
|
Founded in 1975, Oswego County
FCU is a member-owned, not-for-profit financial cooperative
association dedicated to providing quality financial products and services
delivered in a professional, courteous and timely manner. We currently
serve the needs of approximately 5,500 members from throughout Oswego
County who are employed by local governments, small businesses and nursing
homes. To find out if you are in our current field of membership or if
your organization is eligible to join the credit union, simply give us
a call.
Unlike other financial institutions which need to generate profits in
order to satisfy stockholders, we return excess earnings to our members in the following
forms:
* Competitive interest rates paid on savings and
investment accounts
* Competitive interest rates on loans, and
* The addition of valuable new products and services
The products and services available are designed to help you
manage your personal financial affairs at the lowest possible cost. Because we are
member-owned, our criteria for judging success is based on member satisfaction, not
profits. Accordingly, our staff is committed to providing the personal attention you
deserve in satisfying your individual financial needs.
Membership Is Free For Life…
Membership in Oswego County FCU is free. When you join,
the first account you open is a Share Savings Account. It is referred to as "share
savings" because, as a cooperative financial association, members own the credit
union. Your initial deposit of $5.00 to open a Share Savings Account represents your
"share" of ownership. It is not a fee; it goes directly into your newly
established account.
As a "part-owner" of the credit union,
you will have full access to the many convenient and money-saving products and services we
offer. Membership in Oswego County FCU is a benefit that is available to
you for a lifetime, even if you change jobs, relocate or retire. What’s more, after
you join, your family members are also eligible to join.
Your Money Is Safe…
The safety of your money is an important consideration when you evaluate
any financial institution. At Oswego County FCU, you can be assured your
money is secure. Each member’s deposit accounts are insured for up to $100,000 by the
National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), an agency of the federal government.
No one has ever lost a penny placed in trust with a federally insured credit union.
"People Helping People"
We offer confidential, professional, courteous, and personalized service.
At Oswego County FCU, the credit union motto of "People Helping
People" is not some fancy slogan, it’s something we believe in and practice
every day!
We invite you to become a part of our growing family of satisfied
members to discover, first hand, the many benefits of credit union membership. Find Out If You Are Eligible
