Connex Credit Union Recognized as Industry Leader by BauerFinancial, Inc.

Connex Credit Union is proud to announce it has been designated a Five-Star “Superior” organization by BauerFinancial, Inc., the nation’s leading independent bank and credit union rating and research firm. This award is reserved for financial institutions that excel in capital, asset quality, profitability and other fiscal areas.

This rating is based on Connex’s 2016 performance in which the credit union grew to nearly 50,000 members, added more than $2 million in capital and approached $500 million in assets – a plateau that was eventually reached earlier this year. With this recognition, Connex solidifies itself as a safe and financially sound credit union operating well above regulatory capital requirements.

“It is a tremendous honor to be recognized by BauerFinancial for our unwavering commitment to providing superior products and services,” said Carl Casper, executive vice president and chief operating officer, Connex Credit Union. “This dedication is one of the core values of our credit union and has enabled us to remain prosperous despite a tough economic landscape.”
