Credit Unions are Safe & Secure

As recent bank failures make headlines and may have you nervous about the security of your money on deposit, we’d like to share a few facts about why a credit union like Fort Worth City Credit Union is a great place to keep your money safe and secure:

• As a member of Fort Worth City Credit Union (FWCCU), you are an owner of our not-for-profit financial cooperative. Our first priority is your financial well-being.

• FWCCU was chartered 94 years ago, and we are committed to serving our members and our community.

• Deposits in federally insured credit unions like FWCCU are safe and secure. In fact, credit union members have never lost a penny of insured savings at a federally insured credit union.

• Federally insured credit unions offer a safe place for credit union members to save money. These deposits are protected by the National Credit Union Administration and insured up to at least $250,000 per individual depositor – the same as any other federally insured financial institution.

• In addition to financial security, there are other advantages of credit unions over banks, including lower loan rates, annual bonus dividends, and personalized service.

• As a member of FWCCU, you share in our ownership - and our earnings. In 2022, we gave back almost 1/2 million dollars to our members in the form of bonus dividends and loan interest rebates. Bonus dividends are a cornerstone of the not-for-profit model, and a benefit of doing business with FWCCU. Interest rebates lower your effective interest rate and reduce your cost of borrowing from Fort Worth City Credit Union.
