SHREWSBURY, N.J. – Credit unions are converting to banks. Credit unions are competing with each other more than ever before. Credit unions are looking for non-interest income through new products and services that can be described as untraditional. What's going on? Is the credit union philosophy dying a slow death? Some leaders do see some cracks in the foundation, but many others believe it is as strong as ever, and that people shouldn't misinterpret marketplace changes as a weakening in the credit union philosophy. Credit Union Times talked to leaders from all over the country to take their temperature on what they think the state of the philosophy is.
