LAS VEGAS — For its data processing and network outreach to more than 165 credit unions, CU*Answers is the recipient of NACUSO's 2008 CUSO Innovation and Collaboration award.

CEO Randy Karnes accepted the award along with members of the CUSO's team. Founded more than 35 years ago, Grand Rapids, Mich.-based CU*Answers has grown to contain four subsidiaries–CU*NorthWest, CU*South, eDOC Innovations, and Xtend, Inc.

"CUSOs are starting to step out from behind," Karnes said. "I believe we can build an environment where we might not have all the answers but there are opportunities."
