Here's What the Credit Unions are Saying

"CU Direct Connect's indirect lending program is an extremely important component of our overall lending strategy. We have had tremendous success over the years in terms of putting a significant amount of high quality loans on our books through this program. Being part of CU Direct Connect's indirect lending program is like having 400 lending centers throughout the state."

-John Ruby, Sr. Vice President of Lending,  Bellco Credit Union

"The credit union is currently 98% lent out.  Without our indirect lending program, the loan to share ratio would be 70%.  The majority of our loan and member growth is attributable to CU Direct Connect."

- Joe Hasto, CFO, Public Service Credit Union

"The vehicle loan portfolio for our credit union has been successful as a result of the indirect lending program, CU Direct Connect.  With assets of under $10 million, and a limited budget for both marketing and staff, it is a great benefit to our credit union to have the CU Direct Connect program.  Without the indirect lending program, we would have 80% fewer vehicle loans on the books each year."

-Ann Kraus, CEO, VAH Credit Union

"We consider our relationship with CU Direct Connect extremely valuable and view it similar to having additional staff in every participating auto dealership showroom.  Without this relationship, our staffing requirements would surely be higher to handle the volume that CU Direct Connect presently handles for us."

-James A. Seurer, Former Vice President/Chief Financial Officer, Red Rocks Credit Union

"CU Direct Connect's indirect auto lending program has expanded our delivery channels to our membership with the convenience and simplicity that they expect. Premier Members has carefully managed this indirect loan portfolio, making it an integral piece of our financial structure. Without their program, we would not have the successful auto loan portfolio that we have today.

-Mark Lau, Sr. Vice President of Retail Delivery, Premier Members FCU
