We are thrilled to announce that we have been named one of America’s Best Regional Banks and Credit Unions 2025 by Newsweek and Plant-A Insights Group! This recognition is a profound honor, as it highlights our ongoing commitment to our members and the communities we proudly serve.

What This Recognition Means

This distinction reflects our unwavering dedication to providing exceptional financial services and supporting the growth and well-being of our community. Regional banks and credit unions like ours are the financial backbone of communities nationwide. By empowering local businesses, funding critical projects, and offering personalized banking solutions, we ensure that our members have the tools they need to succeed—both financially and personally.

As a member-owned cooperative, our credit union operates with a mission of service rather than profit. This member-first approach drives us to offer competitive loan rates, low fees, and a deep commitment to fostering strong, meaningful relationships with our members. More than just a financial institution, we see ourselves as a partner in the success of every individual, family, and business we serve.

A Rigorous Selection Process

Being included in this esteemed ranking wasn’t by chance. Newsweek and Plant-A Insights Group utilized a comprehensive methodology to identify the top 500 regional banks and top 500 credit unions in the United States. This evaluation process considered:

• Texas Ratio: A measure of credit quality.
• Profitability: Ensuring financial strength and stability.
• Net Loans and Leases: Assessing our contribution to funding local initiatives.
• Press Coverage: Reflecting our reputation and achievements over the past two years.
• Customer Feedback: Including an independent survey of more than 71,000 U.S. citizens, 1.9 million social media reviews, and 129 million app store reviews from Apple and Google.

To stand out in such a competitive field is a testament to the trust our members place in us and the dedication of our team to deliver excellence every day.
