Railways Credit Union

Railways Credit Union (RCU) are a mutual financial institution owned by our members. Like banks, the Railways Credit Union has shareholders, but the difference is anyone can be a shareholder of a bank, whereas only members can be shareholders in a credit union.

Being a mutual financial institution means that unlike banks, the Railways Credit Union focus is not on making large profits to give to investing shareholders. Instead, the Railways Credit Union focus on offering exceptionally priced savings and loan products, which help our members to be able to move in to their own homes, purchase their car, or reach their savings goals much quicker.
