SECU Financial?
Trying to ignite your thinking about what the future may have in store for you as an SECU member... and why you should care.
First lure was to point out the fact that you and your family stand to lose $8,000 to $10,000+ [link] if the bank buyouts, merger mania, insider dealings, and conversions reach your credit union [link].
If a stranger were to ask you to simply hand over $8/$10,000, you would question their sanity; if someone simply withdrew $8/$10,000 from your credit union share account you would hopefully consider it fraud.
Maybe you are of the sort that really could care less about having an extra $10,000 bucks in your pocket - most of us aren't like that! Statewide, would a little $6 billion cash infusion into the North Carolina economy be helpful?
Want to see these trends in action? Then take a look at our neighbors to the south in Texas [link]:
"Credit unions have historically focused on consumer lending, so having “credit union” in the brand implies a limited scope of what the organization may be able to do. With the word “financial,” it more accurately represents the full range of products and services..."
"... open to additional mergers and acquisitions,”; "... will focus on closing its merger with Space City Credit Union and acquisition of Sabine State Bank & Trust before making any more deals,"; "...‘We would like to partner with you. . .”; "We must grow."

😎 At 10:00 am [ET] Friday [7/18]: You might even want to listen in on the Texas credit union regulator's meeting [connect info at bottom of article]. See if their regulators are also " sitting on their as-... e-r-r... hands"
