The board and management at Truliant Federal Credit Union often talk about meeting Truliant's top priority: improving the financial well-being of 190,000 members.

And that also means, in the Truliant view, that the credit union recognizes that not all member relationships are immediately profitable.

"Whenever we recruit potential new members for our board, we make sure they understand serving the member is all important.
