MADISON, Wis. — World Council of Credit Unions has launched its redesigned Web site, www.woccu.org, which offers a more integrated look at the international credit union system and WOCCU's work around the world. The site also provides various resources on research and best practices in credit union development.

Highlights at www.woccu.org include: information about WOCCU's programs, international remittances, partnerships and credit union statistics in any given country in the international credit union system; an expanded section on WOCCU's International Partnerships; access to free publications and research in credit union development; Online subscription WOCCU's Credit Union World magazine and electronic newsletters; and Web pages mirrored in Spanish.
