  Who We Are (UCCU)

  In 1955, a BYU faculty member discovered a concept that would change everything: a financial institution owned not by stockholders, but by the people it served. He and six colleagues each put in $5 from their own pockets. They could not afford office space, so they set up a table on a stair landing in a campus building. They had no vault, so they kept their assets in a cast-iron tub. From those humble beginnings, Utah Community Credit Union was born.

  Seventy years later, UCCU has grown into one of the fastest-growing credit unions in the nation, serving more than 185,000 members across the Wasatch Front and beyond, with over $3 billion in assets and a clear ambition to reach $10 billion by 2033. What has never changed is the founding philosophy: people helping people. UCCU is still not-for-profit, still member-owned, and still driven by a mission to help members improve their financial strength, achieve their goals and dreams, and love where they bank.

  UCCU's growth today is both organic and strategic. The recent acquisition of TransWest Credit Union added four branches to the network. Membership in the Allpoint ATM network expanded reach beyond its physical footprint. A landmark $7 million partnership with Utah Tech University deepened UCCU's roots in higher education and community investment. CEO Justin Olson, who has served UCCU for more than two decades in roles including CIO before stepping into the top seat, has set a clear vision for where the organization is going: "We envision UCCU as a vibrant, $10 billion institution by 2033, fueled by talented, purposeful people. Our members are at the heart of everything we do."
