Yes. As a federally insured credit union, Veritas offers a safe and secure place to save money. The National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF) provides coverage up to $250,000 per individual depositor so your deposits are protected. Importantly, no member has ever lost a penny of insured savings at a federally insured credit union.

What makes a credit union different from a bank?
Credit unions—like Veritas—are not-for-profit financial cooperatives. Instead of customers, we have members, and our volunteer board of directors works on your behalf. When you deposit just $25 into a share account, you become a member-owner of Veritas Federal Credit Union.
Because we’re not driven by profits, any surplus earnings are returned to you through:
- Higher dividends on savings
- Lower loan rates
- Free or low-cost financial services
How are credit unions connected to each other?
Credit unions are part of a global cooperative network and are designed to support members wherever they go. This network includes:
- Shared branches (over 5,000 nationwide)
- State credit union leagues
- The Credit Union National Association (CUNA)
Because of these partnerships, you can access financial services easily—even when traveling or living far from your home branch.
