Merger Information
Kent Credit Union to Merge with Seven Seventeen Credit Union
Members of Kent Credit Union were recently notified via letter of a merger with Seven Seventeen Credit Union effective November 1, 2015, pending regulatory approval. As it so happens, both Kent and Seven Seventeen have taglines tied to their logos mentioning better banking, because both have a philosophy in which we are focused on exceeding member expectations. At Kent Credit Union and Seven Seventeen Credit Union, we are not-for-profit financial cooperatives without stockholders, so our focus is on serving our members. While individually, both credit unions offer a better banking alternative than other financial institutions, we will be even better together.
Members of Kent Credit Union will be gaining a number of new and enhanced financial products and services, better rates on loans and deposits when comparing current rates, greater online and mobile banking functionality, retirement and investment services, and small business friendly financial products and services.
