Credit Unions & Millennium Corporate
Credit unions began as an idealistic, practical experiment with a simple concept – members pool their savings and lend to each other. The Federal Credit Union act, passed in 1934, offered provisions for federal central credit unions to support federal- and state-chartered credit unions.
In November 1951, Kansas Corporate Credit Union was chartered. A milestone act, providing credit unions with a cooperative correspondent ally in the financial services industry. Kansas Corporate served the credit unions of Kansas solely until 2005 when efforts began to promote partnerships outside state boundaries. Credit unions from surrounding areas quickly learned of our commitment to the industry and the value of partnering with Kansas Corporate.
Two mergers followed and Kansas Corporate membership flourished. The first in 2012, with Treasure State Corporate Credit Union in Helena, MT, and the second, in 2015, with Missouri Corporate Credit Union in St. Louis, MO. Through mergers and membership expansion efforts, Millennium Corporate Credit Union has grown to serve hundreds of credit unions in 10 states.
With the growth and expansion into areas outside Kansas, a name that was once so fitting, no longer seemed so. In 2016, Kansas Corporate underwent a rebranding initiative to become Millennium Corporate Credit Union. This new name and brand don’t change who we are or what we believe, it simply reflects who we’ve become and where we’ll go from here.
We are Millennium Corporate Credit Union, and we are creating pathways to success for credit unions.
