Credit Union

Your

Your Credit Union Limited is a credit union located in Ontario. It was founded in 1950. It primarily serves Ottawa and Cornwall.

Your Credit Union traces its roots to 1950, when Ottawa Municipal Employees Credit Union was established to serve City of Ottawa workers. Over time, mergers brought together several workplace based credit unions in the Ottawa region, including institutions originally serving teachers, newspaper employees, and municipal staff.

In 1999, the credit union expanded to Cornwall through a merger that included Howard Smith Credit Union. It adopted the name Your Credit Union in 2004 and became an open bond credit union in 2009, allowing membership to extend beyond its original workplace groups.

Today, Your Credit Union serves members in Ottawa, Cornwall, and surrounding communities. It offers personal and business banking, lending, mortgages, investments, and related financial services through a member owned cooperative structure.
