Return of the Member

WASHINGTON - Determining how a credit union stands relative to its peers in terms of returning value to its members is a complex issue. Callahan & Associates, Washington, has attempted to do just that with its Return of the Member ranking system.

Callahan’s said the system is designed to help a credit union analyze its member service levels based on the information reported in 5300 Call Reports and provides an “economic profile based on the value of your CU’s products and services.”

The core components of Return to the Member are: lending, savings, and member service usage. Callahan & Associates noted that the leaders in the latter category are credit unions with a high number of core account relationships with their members.

Credit Union Journal is featuring the high-performers in the Return to the Member rankings as part of its “Leader Board” series, which examines why and how the credit union’s management has been able to drive the CU’s success.
