Dividend and Rates
If the credit union a generates surplus, that surplus may be shared with members in the form of a dividend on savings (subject to adequate levels of reserves being met). If the credit union is in a position to pay a dividend, this rate will be decided and agreed by our members at our Annual General Meeting, based on recommendations from our Board.
Following an unprecedented couple of years for members, the credit union, and the wider economy, the Board was pleased this year, 2021, to be in a position to propose a 0.15% dividend for savers and an 8% unsecured loan interest rebate for borrowers.
We’re delighted to announce that at the AGM on 8 December, the membership voted* in favour of these rates, which reward our savers and borrowers whilst maintaining adequate reserves for the credit union’s future.
*Votes were pre-cast online and by post, and in person on the night.
