About Municipal Credit Union
Municipal Credit Union has been serving the financial needs of our members since 1916. The credit union was chartered in response to the concern of New York City Mayor, John Purroy Mitchel, who wanted city employees to have a way to save at reasonable rates and a low cost borrowing alternative to loan sharks. MCU started out with one branch in the Municipal building using handwritten ledgers. At the end of the first year, nineteen charter account holders had combined deposits of $570. Today, we have 16 branches, over 630,000 members and $4.7 billion in assets. Our corporate mission is to build lifetime quality financial relationships with each member by providing competitive products and excellent service. Equal Housing Opportunity Lender. Federally Insured by NCUA.
