United Financials Capital (UFC) will directly facilitate collaboration and drive organizational efficiencies through lending services, allowing credit unions to enter the business participation marketplace immediately. UFC owners and subscribers will all benefit from their shared expertise and bring value to businesses and community developers, while enhancing the member experience. By building on existing resources in each identified target market, UFC will reduce costs, increase revenue and create new opportunities for credit unions.
The new CUSO’s leaders also hope to create a safe zone of innovation for vetting new business ideas within the credit union model, and plan to identify, evaluate and pursue new public-private partnerships within the communities served by their members – with the goal of providing additional lending opportunities.
