When seeking comment from a credit union official, you will want to speak with the credit union president/CEO. At smaller credit unions, this person often holds the title of manager and may also serve in another capacity, such as treasurer. Credit union boards are led by a chairperson or president.

Credit union CEOs/managers can usually be reached at the credit union office. Small credit unions may have limited office hours because the contact person may be a volunteer who works outside the credit union or only part-time in the credit union office.

While they may have fewer services, small credit unions are just as important to members as larger cooperatives. In fact, the importance of smaller credit unions is even greater in areas that have been vacated by other financial institutions.

Georgia Credit Union Affiliates can provide reporters with mid-year and year-end statistics for credit unions in specific areas, the state as a whole or on a national level. Credit union lists can be organized by asset size or membership size.

For more information, to arrange an interview with a credit union, or to speak with a credit union expert, contact the Georgia Credit Union Affiliates Public Relations Department.
