FAIRBORN, Ohio Wright-Patt CU is returning to Columbus a dozen years after leaving the market, with plans to open as many as three new branches in the state capital, one in the next three months.
Wright-Patt closed its two Columbus branches in 2001 after it banded together with several other credit unions to launch a shared-branch network that permitted members to conduct transactions at each other’s branches. It also was in the early days of conducting financial business over the Internet and by mail and telephone.
Wright-Patt has $2.6 billion in assets and membership of 250,000, making it the state’s largest credit union.
