There are many advantages to putting your money in a credit union rather than in a bank. These institutions are owned and operated by those who put their money in them. Because of this, they often have fewer fees than a bank and they offer better opportunities to their members. Most Americans can join them. Usually they also offer better interest rates and they are often affected less by a poor economy that a typical bank. Credit Unions are also backed by the government so that you will get your money back, even if the credit union fails.
