STABILITY
Founded in 1952, San Mateo Credit Union has grown over the years to keep pace with the evolving financial needs of our member-owners. Since we first opened our doors, each year has marked a growth in assets and an expansion of our member base?currently more than $600 million and 68,000, respectively?which is a clear indication of SMCU?s vibrant financial health and operational strength. We welcome any individual who lives, works, or attends school in San Mateo County.
ADVANTAGES
Unlike banks, credit unions are owned by their members. At SMCU, everything we do is designed with member-owners in mind?from quality services to cost-efficient products to personalized attention. We return value to everyone who participates in our member-owned financial cooperative, passing our profits on to you in the form of lower loan rates, higher dividends on savings, the lowest possible fees, and many free and practical services. We also place particular emphasis on safeguarding your privacy at all times, and never sell our members? information.
PHILOSOPHY
Because our member-owners are our most valuable assets, we embrace principles that reflect our commitment to you:
?Not for profit, not for charity, but for service?
?People helping people?
MISSION STATEMENT
While maintaining a sound financial position, San Mateo Credit Union, a financial cooperative, will provide a wide range of valued financial products and services and give member-owners a feeling of personal identity and belonging as an owner.
