The Most Overlooked Growth Opportunity in First Responder Credit Unions

Credit unions spend enormous amounts of time, energy, and marketing dollars trying to acquire new members. But many institutions — especially sponsor-based first responder credit unions — are sitting on one of the most valuable growth opportunities already inside their existing membership base. The joint owner population. Every day, firefighters, police officers, EMTs, dispatchers, and other first responders join credit unions through sponsor relationships. During account opening, spouses or partners are often added as joint owners for convenience. They help manage the household finances. They use the debit card. They log into online banking. They interact with the credit union regularly. Yet in many cases, they never actually become full member-owners of the cooperative. They are connected to the institution — but not fully part of it. And that creates a major strategic opportunity. Why Joint Owner Conversion Matters For sponsor-based credit unions, converting joint owners into full m...

ACU Calls For Full Political Engagement As Election Cycle Heats Up, Warns Of Well-Funded Opposition

  WASHINGTON--Credit unions need every advocacy resource at their disposal, and in an election year, that means supporting credit union champions, America’s Credit Unions emphasized. ACU President/CEO Scott Simpson and Head of Political Affairs Trey Hawkins outlined credit unions’ role in supporting those champions in the 120th Congress as the 2026 election cycle resumes with primaries next week. Scott Simpson “It’s important that we defend those who defend us, that we help those who help us,” Simpson said, referring to policymakers who have supported the credit union tax status and regulatory relief, while opposing new interchange mandates, to name a few issues. “This is an opportunity for us to lean in, to marshal all the available resources that we can. Our counterparts in the for-profit financial space, those who are devoted to harming us, can vastly out-resource us.” Hawkins shared potential outcomes for control of chambers of Congress, but noted credit unions have support reg...

Discussions Reportedly Underway Over Allowing Donations of Co. Stock to Trump Accounts for Kids

WASHINGTON — White House and Treasury Department officials are discussing whether to expand the Trump administration’s new investment accounts for American children to allow donations of individual company stock. The accounts, formally known as Section 530A accounts and referred to by supporters as “Trump accounts,” are scheduled to begin accepting contributions on July 4, The New York Times reported. The program has already received billions of dollars in philanthropic commitments. Under current rules, the accounts are limited to cash investments placed into diversified index funds. According to The New York Times, administration officials are now considering whether wealthy individuals could instead donate shares of their companies directly into the accounts. The proposal has reportedly been championed by venture capitalist Brad Gerstner, founder of Altimeter Capital, who helped develop the 530A account initiative. Gerstner has discussed the idea with administration officials, The Ne...

Cutting Through The Stablecoin Noise—What Credit Unions Actually Need To Know Now

By Ray Birch DOVER, Del.—By any measure, stablecoins have quickly become one of the most talked-about—and least understood—topics in credit union boardrooms. The pressure to “do something” is building, fueled by headlines, fintech momentum and a growing fear of being left behind. But according to InvestiFi CEO Kian Sarreshteh, that urgency may be misplaced. “There’s a lot of FOMO right now,” Sarreshteh said. “If I don’t adopt a stablecoin solution this year, I’m going to be left behind. I would argue pretty strongly that’s very far from the truth.” Instead of rushing to sign up for a Stablecoin pilot, Sarreshteh said credit unions should begin with a more fundamental question: what problem are you actually trying to solve? While stablecoins are often discussed as a potential challenger to traditional payment rails dominated by Visa and Mastercard, he believes that kind of mass-market disruption remains years away—especially in the U.S., where consumers already have fast, convenient opt...

NAFCU - Vehicle Sales Decline During 2017

ARLINGTON, Va.—Vehicle sales in 2017 totaled 17.23 million units, non-seasonally adjusted, marking the first year-over-year sales decline since 2009. Total vehicle sales increased in December to 17.85 million seasonally adjusted, annualized units but were down 1.7% from a year ago. "Looking ahead, sales are expected to trend down further in 2018 as pent-up demand from earlier years diminishes," observed NAFCU Research Assistant Yun Cohen in a Macro Data Flash report. "In addition, banks are tightening standards on auto loans according to a recent survey by the Federal Reserve, which could lead to credit constraints. Despite the slowdown, vehicle sales are expected to remain strong in light of a strong labor market and growing economy." According to data by Autodata Corp., car sales decreased from 6.3 million to 6.1 million annualized units during the month. However, sales of light trucks increased from 11.2 million to 11.8 million annualized units, Cohen no...

'Victory is Elusive': CU Economist Agrees Fed Rate Cuts Questionable Following New CPI Report

04/10/2024 11:01 am WASHINGTON–A credit union economist has joined with other economists and analysts in forecasting a delay in any rate cuts by the Fed in 2024 following today’s inflation report. The newly released Consumer Price Index climbed 3.8% on an annual basis after stripping out food and fuel prices. That “core” index was stronger than the 3.7% increase economists expected, and unchanged from 3.8% in February.  Counting in food and fuel, the inflation measure climbed 3.5% in March from a year earlier, up from 3.2% in February and faster than what many had forecast.  "Victory in the Federal Reserve's inflation fight remains elusive with a stubbornly high headline consumer price index increase of 0.4% in March, matching February's disappointing result,” said America's Credit Unions VP-data and research, chief econom...

Ten-Year Treasury Hits a 15-Year High

WASHINGTON–The yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note has hit a 15-year high, which could lead to higher costs for many borrowers. The increase in yields is also “raising concern” on Wall Street about the potential fallout in the stock, bond and housing markets, the Wall Street Journal added. A key benchmark for interest rates across the economy, the 10-year yield settled at 4.258%, according to Tradeweb, up from 4.220% earlier this week, marking its highest close since June 2008, months before the collapse of Lehman Brothers and expansive Federal Reserve policy “ushered in more than a decade of historically low bond yields,” the Journal added. ‘Nervous’ Investors “The rise in yields is making investors nervous, because past surges have at...
