Born nearly a century ago as the credit union of Douglas Aircraft, our values were forged in the factories and plants that made the region prosper. Helping build the lives of hard-working people has been our mission since the day we were founded. Nuvision Credit Union is here to provide you with specialized products, expert service, and financial tools to help you with the life you build.

Headquartered in Huntington Beach, CA, Nuvision FCU (www.nuvisionfederal.com) is a federally chartered, full-service credit union serving more than 160,000 members in California, Arizona, Washington, Alaska and Wyoming with assets of approximately $3.4 billion.

The merger between Nuvision and Cooperative Center will bring greater value and convenience from your credit union membership. After our credit unions are integrated, members will receive an important number of additional benefits:

• A toll-free, full-service contact center with extended weekend hours and live chat to assist members who prefer the convenience of banking by phone or online.

New Products and Services

Absolutely! Both Credit Union Boards are very excited about this partnership and the benefits it brings our members and communities.

With the member approval process now completed, we will begin integrating the operations of the two credit unions, which is targeted for completion by June 1, 2024. We will keep you updated on our progress in the coming months.

Members can feel very at ease with the financial stability of this merger, as both credit unions are independently successful, strong, and financially sound. We each have net worth ratios that exceed regulatory requirements to qualify as well capitalized, and both have avoided high-risk lending activities.

The name of our combined organization will be Nuvision Credit Union.

We’ve ensured that this is an easy transition for you! You will not need to open a new account. As we integrate our systems, all existing Cooperative Center FCU accounts will automatically be migrated onto Nuvision Credit Union’s system. We will work hard to make the integration as seamless as possible so that you may continue to conduct business as you always have.

Yes. We will provide you more specific information about your account number when we integrate our credit union systems.

You will begin to receive information when we get closer to system integration, which is scheduled for June 2024. As we get closer to this date you will receive a number of communications that will have important information regarding your accounts.

Many of the current products that you enjoy at Cooperative Center FCU are also available at Nuvision. You’ll be provided with more information as we combine the two credit unions. Existing certificates and IRA certificates will retain the same rates and maturity dates.

Yes, this information will be transferred to and recognized by Nuvision’s data processing system.

Nuvision Credit Union CEO Roger Ballard, will remain CEO of the combined organization. The same team from Cooperative Center will continue to serve members at the Martinez and Berkely branches after the merger.

Yes! Your accounts will remain safe, sound and federally insured through the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, a U.S. Government Agency, just as they are today.

Yes, of course! You will absolutely continue to receive the same personalized service you’ve come to expect from us. In fact, we’ll have the resources to offer you even better service. The primary reason for our two credit unions to explore this merger is to better serve our member-owners.

No, membership eligibility will not be affected. The combined credit union will continue to serve all of the organizations, companies and sponsors we currently serve. It will also provide credit union membership opportunities to new communities and members that we have been unable to serve in the past.
