As more and more merchants and service providers adopt so-called "contactless payments" technology, close can get you a cigar, a bagel, a burger and just about anything else you might be used to buying now with the swipe of a credit or debit card. For a credit union, can also generate more transactions, reduce fraud losses and give a boost to member loyalty. The downside maybe that the technology is not yet widely available in many markets and it can be a bit more expensive. California Coast Credit Union, San Diego, made the move to contactless debit after mergers with Financial 21 Credit Union and First Future Credit Union in 2008. Several benefits contribute to the cards' growing popularity in Southern California: RF card security is as good as that of traditional ma...

The dispute seemed impossible to resolve. After 40 minutes of intense debate, the board reached a consensus on the color of the carpet in the credit union's new branch. Boards have the most tendency to micro-manage when it comes to building new facilities, says Consultant Anthea Radford, president of Arjane Governance Group. Many people do not realize that making a change in a building may have a domino effect, making it necessary to make many other changes. While many directors and CEOs have been through numerous building projects, every new board member eventually will face the first expansion during his or her term. Directors should not be determining the details of a building, Radford says, or worry about what it will look like. Instead, they need to look at the project from a risk ...

[Sibongile] ended up using her family's savings, along with her mother's and aunt's retirement funds, to finance the first deal: leasing a plane from the Russian Federation. "I remember waiting for days at the airport for the plane to arrive, panicking that after paying so much money and risking people's savings it may not arrive."

Before deciding to close a location a credit union should do its homework to make sure the move will not only help it weather its short-term slump, but also make sense in the context of a more digital future. Coastal Federal Credit Union doubled the size of its network from 11 to 23 branches between 2003 and 2007, only to close eight of those branches over a recent 15-month span. The closures were the result of expiring leases coupled with new evaluation criteria for branches developed in 2008. According to EVP/COO Chuck Purvis, the evaluation assessed two main categories: site criteria and branch performance model. To CUs considering a branch closure, Mid-American Credit Union CEO Jim Holt recommends this: Reach out to others first. In September Mid-American CU will open a new branch i...
