The financially troubled $72 million Vantria Federal Credit Union in Springfield, Va., will merge with the $1.7 billion Apple Federal Credit Union in Fairfax, Va., by early May.

"Vantria has been adversely affected by the decline in the real estate market, loan defaults and bankruptcies, as well as the increased burden of an evolving regulatory environment," said Patricia Malatesta, Vantria CEO/president.

Since 2008, Vantria has lost $5.7 million, according to NCUA financial performance reports. The credit union's net worth is 3.8%. Vantria's membership has also declined from 9,440 in December 2008 to 7,842 in December 2012.
