SRP FCU Names New CEO

SRP FCU in North Augusta, S.C., named an executive from one of the nation's largest credit unions as its next president and chief executive.

Harry Gunsallus, executive vice president at Redstone Federal Credit Union in Huntsville, Ala., will start in his new leadership roles at the $750 million-asset SRP tentatively on May 23, Chairman Roy Geiselhart said in an interview Tuesday.

Gunsallus will replace Ed Templeton, who will retire July 29. Templeton, who also serves as chairman of National Association of Federal Credit Unions, served as president and CEO since 1988. He will step down as NAFCU chairman in July.

"Our credit union is in pretty good shape and the new CEO's task will be to keep us on the same trajectory and move us toward the billion dollar mark in assets," Geiselhart said of Gunsallus.

Gunsallus also currently serves as president and CEO of Redstone Consulting Group, a subsidiary of the $4.3 billion-asset Redstone Federal CU.
