What is a Credit Union?


As one of over 4,853 credit unions, Common Trust Federal Credit Union is a part of a long-standing tradition in personal-finance management. The concept of the credit union began in the mid-1800s, and the tradition continues today with many of the same values. Credit unions are not-for-profit, member-owned, and democratically operated by people just like you. Unlike banks that are driven to make a profit, we invest our earnings back into our members and our community.
