General Info:
Credit Union of Georgia has proudly provided financial solutions with value, convenience and exceptional service to the Community of Northwest Georgia for nearly 60 years. The Credit Union was established in 1960 to serve the faculty, staff and students of local school systems and institutions of higher learning. With a history of serving educators, Credit Union of Georgia has a passion for education and giving back to our local schools.
We provide members with exceptional financial products and services including savings, checking, loans, mortgages, financial planning, auto locator service, and complete online services including eLending, eBranch, ePay, eStatements, and eAlerts. All of our lending and operating decisions are made locally, right here in Northwest Georgia, to ensure decisions are made quickly and in your best interest. We invite you to compare our products and services to those of other financial institutions. We think you'll be pleased with what we have to offer.
Credit Union of Georgia is a not-for-profit, member-owned cooperative where members have a direct impact on how the Credit Union operates. Any profit the credit union earns is returned to our members in the form of lower loan rates and higher savings rates. Every member has an equal voice in the Credit Union. Members elect a Board of Directors who serve without compensation and help oversee the operations of the Credit Union.
We always welcome an examination of our creditworthiness. The National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), the federal regulator of credit unions, and the Georgia Department of Banking and Finance track credit unions by risk category, based not only on published data, but also on actual examination visits. Your accounts at the credit union are insured up to $250,000 and backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, just as the FDIC does for bank deposits. We are a sound financial institution and we are still lending money.
