Credit unions delivering better deals 11 November 2009
More than 4.3 million Australians are members of a credit union or mutual building society. “Mutual financial institutions offer Australians a better banking deal with outstanding service and market-leading customer satisfaction ratings,” said Abacus CEO Louise Petschler.Recent independent surveys have shown how consumers can save thousands of dollars by switching from a major bank to a credit union or mutual building society."Friendly societies are member-focused organisations that help Australians become financially independent and to plan for life events.
