Credit Union
UNI Financial Cooperation
UNI Financial Cooperation is a credit union located in New Brunswick. It was founded in 1936. It primarily serves Francophone and Acadian communities of New Brunswick.
UNI Financial Cooperation is the largest Acadian francophone financial institution in Canada. Its roots reach back to 1936, when the first Caisse populaire acadienne was founded in Petit Rocher, New Brunswick. Its development was connected to the use of the cooperative model to expand financial access, local ownership, and economic participation in Acadian communities.
Headquartered in Caraquet, UNI serves communities across New Brunswick with personal, business, wealth, and insurance services. In 2016, it became the first credit union in Canada to obtain a federal charter, placing it under the federal credit union framework.
UNI continues to operate with a local and francophone identity, providing cooperative financial services for members, businesses, and community development in New Brunswick.
