"It is gratifying that Canadians continue to feel valued and well served by their local credit unions," said David Phillips, president and CEO of Credit Union Central of Canada (Canadian Central). "Canadian credit unions have more than five million members because of the keen focus on customer service at the community level," Phillips said. "Meeting the needs of our members continues to be our priority in any economic environment." Global market research firm Synovate announced its 2010 Best Banking Awards, which are derived from its Customer Service Index. It found that credit unions received top honors among all financial institutions in five of the same award categories as they did in 2009. In three categories, credit unions stood alone: - Overall Customer Service Excellence - Values My Business - Branch Service Excellence Credit unions also tied for first in the following categories: - Financial Planning & Advice - Telephone Banking Excellence http://www.nelsoncu.com/upload_publications/upload_2010-07-09.pdf http://www.nelsoncu.com/upload_publications/upload_2010-07-09.pdf Fri, 09 Jul 2010 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.nelsoncu.com/news.php?id=106 http://www.nelsoncu.com/news.php?id=106 Wed, 07 Jul 2010 00:00:00 -0700 We are pleased to welcome our newest Kootenay Insurance Services office in Invermere, conveniently located next to our credit union branch at 1028 7th Avenue.

At the Marketing Association for Credit Unions (MACU) Conference, the most exciting and celebrated event is the Achievement in Marketing Excellence Awards (AIME) competition. Attracting entries from credit unions across Canada, the AIME recognizes the brightest achievements in credit union marketing, advertising and communications. The credit union's Image Enhancement entry, which highlighted the Financial Hike - Nelson & District Credit Union's financial planning process, received top honours by winning an Achievement in Marketing Excellence (AIME). Paramount to the Financial Hike's success was the introduction of a consistent Kootenay lifestyle image and the financial guiding knowledge our staff continually offer members. Nelson & District Credit Union was also recognized for its entry in the Annual Report category by winning an Achievement in Marketing (AIM). Its 2006 report showcased Nelson & District Credit Union's commitment to its 5 key strategies. The reports story format helped outline the importance this credit union places on its People, Community Investment Program, Innovative Products & Alliances, Community Wellness and Youth. "The common theme through all award-winning campaigns is a dedicated commitment to our brand; logical solutions from a local financial cooperative committed to community banking," said Tom Atkins, Manager-Marketing & Relationship Development, Nelson & District Credit Union. "Key attributes of our brand, such as consistency and lifestyle, allow us to connect with our members." The Marketing Team made up of Tom Atkins, Rick Loewen, Bradley Roulston and Tom Murray with design direction provided by Brad Steele, from Nelson based Frolix Design, worked to create an image that reflects our communities' love of lifestyle, commitment to community and the desire for local banking solutions. Tom Atkins was also recognized for his win in a Team Marketing competition titled the MACU Masters. Four teams of credit union marketing professionals were given the task of re-creating the brand for 2 non-profit women's programs. Tom's team developed an engaging campaign for the Victoria Women's Transition House Society to take the inaugural MACU Masters title. http://www.nelsoncu.com/news.php?id=74 http://www.nelsoncu.com/news.php?id=74 Sun, 08 Jun 2008 00:00:00 -0700 Kootenay Co-op Radio presents a Summer Youth Radio Camp. 1 week camps begin August 4th.

Credit Unions Post Earnings of $261 Million in 2007 VANCOUVER -- B.C. credit unions earned $261 million before taxes and dividends last year, Credit Union Central of British Columbia announced today. That marks a modest gain over the 2006 result of $260 million. The system's combined assets grew by 9.5 per cent to $42.6 billion at year-end. "B.C. credit unions enjoyed another solid year in 2007," said Don Rolfe, Central's President and Chief Executive Officer. "With the strength in the province's domestic economy, particularly the housing sector, credit unions saw continued growth in loans to home-buyers and businesses." Housing markets continued to be strong in most regions of B.C., and the residential mortgage portfolio grew by 10.1 per cent to $25 billion, amounting to 68 per cent of total loans. Loans to businesses grew by 15.3 per cent to $9.1 billion, representing nearly 25 per cent of the lending portfolio. Loan delinquency remained at very low levels, with loans in arrears more than 90 days amounting to just 0.21 per cent of total loan value. Members' deposits grew by 7.9 per cent to $36.3 billion. B.C. credit unions are owned by their 1.6 million members, who received $39 million in dividends and patronage rebates last year. There are 48 credit unions in B.C., operating from 368 locations in 140 communities, including 41 that have no other financial institution. They are governed by local boards of directors, elected on a one-member, one-vote basis. The B.C. credit union system employs more than 8,000 British Columbians. http://www.nelsoncu.com/upload_publications/upload_2008-04-29.pdf http://www.nelsoncu.com/upload_publications/upload_2008-04-29.pdf Tue, 29 Apr 2008 00:00:00 -0700 Steve Cutt, not only a good man but a good sport! http://www.nelsoncu.com/news.php?id=70 http://www.nelsoncu.com/news.php?id=70 Fri, 18 Apr 2008 00:00:00 -0700 Members can view 2007 financial results by scrolling over the About NDCU option and clicking on the Annual Report 2007 button. http://www.nelsoncu.com/upload_publications/1upload_2008-02-22.pdf http://www.nelsoncu.com/upload_publications/1upload_2008-02-22.pdf Fri, 22 Feb 2008 00:00:00 -0700 Nelson & District Credit Union has another strong year. http://www.nelsoncu.com/upload_publications/upload_2008-02-01.pdf http://www.nelsoncu.com/upload_publications/upload_2008-02-01.pdf Fri, 01 Feb 2008 00:00:00 -0700 Brian Poch helps cut the ribbon http://www.nelsoncu.com/upload_publications/upload_2007-12-17.pdf http://www.nelsoncu.com/upload_publications/upload_2007-12-17.pdf Mon, 17 Dec 2007 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.nelsoncu.com/upload_publications/upload_2007-11-19.pdf http://www.nelsoncu.com/upload_publications/upload_2007-11-19.pdf Mon, 19 Nov 2007 00:00:00 -0700 Climate change and NDCU. http://www.nelsoncu.com/news.php?id=68 http://www.nelsoncu.com/news.php?id=68 Tue, 16 Oct 2007 00:00:00 -0700 Celebrating Co-op Week A co-operative (co-op) is a jointly owned and democratically controlled enterprise by its members. BC has one of the most vibrant co-op movements in Canada with one in three people being members. Co-ops in BC started in the early 1900s largely through the formation of consumer co-ops that provided affordable quality goods as an alternative to company stores in mining communities. Today there are over 700 co-ops in BC, Nelson area has over 20 of them. Some of the more popular co-ops are Credit Unions and Mountain Equipment Co-op. Co-ops can be businesses offering products or services to their members, social enterprising providing necessities as housing or employment or public services like healthcare or client care. Co-ops are not necessarily driven by profit, being member-run; their desire is to bring fairness, equity and justice to the marketplace. Through their tradition of self-help and mutual aid, co-ops have made a major contribution to the development and stability of BC communities. Here in the Nelson area, a regional co-op is forming to best serve the interests of local residents by sharing resources, experience and planning. It is the first of its kind in BC to form! All co-ops in the world are based on a set of principles 1) Voluntary and Open membership 2) Democratic Member Control 3) Member Economic Participation 4) Autonomy and Independence 5) Education, Training and Information 6) Co-operation among Co-operatives 7) Concern for Community Co-op week celebrations began in Canada in 1981 in the Maritimes and Saskatchewan. In 1982, the celebration went national with the encouragement of the Co-operative Union of Canada (predecessor of the Canadian Co-operative Association). Co-op week is a celebration of people working together and sharing.
