The $2.2 billion Wings Financial Federal Credit Union said members recently voted "overwhelmingly" to change from a federal to a Minnesota state credit union charter.
Members voted on Aug. 27, according to the Apple Valley, Minn.-based credit union. The change would allow Wings Financial to continue focusing on its core national air transportation field of membership while expanding the field of membership to include anyone living or working in the 13 county Minneapolis/St. Paul metro area, the credit union said.
A count of members who voted for or against the conversion was not immediately available. According to Wings Financial's Web site (www.wingsfinancial.com), thousands of members participated in the voting process. The credit union serves 123,000 members worldwide. Wings Financial said it would not be able to accept member applications until final steps are taken in the conversion process.
