After more than 18 years at Truity Federal Credit Union, Dennis Halpin announced Friday that he will retire in January 2023. He has been the CEO of Truity for the past five years.

Headquartered in Bartlesville, Okla., 50 miles north of Tulsa, Truity ($1 billion in assets, 71,928 members) has thrived under Halpin's leadership, according to Friday's statement.

"As our CEO, Dennis has demonstrated strong leadership for Truity, its values, its employees, members and the communities where we live and work for the past five years. He leaves the credit union in a strong financial position with assets totaling $1 billion," Truity Board of Directors Chairman Brent Boeve said. "The entire board would like to acknowledge his outstanding efforts and wish him well in retirement."

The board has hired an executive recruitment firm to assist in finding the "best possible candidate to lead Truity in continued growth and development."

"I am proud of all that we have accomplished during my tenure at Truity Credit Union. I can retire with full confidence knowing that the leadership team is well positioned to achieve even more in the years to come as the corporate strategy, the Focus 4 Twenty-Four Plan, is implemented," Halpin said. "I also want to personally thank our membership for their support of the credit union and the employees that make Truity a great place to work."

According to the credit union's most recent NCUA Call Report from June 2022, Truity is considered well capitalized with a net worth ratio of 9.95%.
